through time

now the time has elapsed

it inevitably has come to pass

that i write for you at last

a song

a rhyme

oh

to tell you the truth of it

i'm a little confused myself

is it through memory's rose-tinted glass

i have come to ask

or is it a love that was meant to last

through time itself

proving us wrong all along

shouldn't we be holding on

it's a silly thing really

that you shouldn't believe in

nothing too complicated

endlessly formulated

foolish romantic ideals of love

could there be such a thing

how could there be such a thing

as beautifully flawed

we'll make mistakes and then

life is the art of learning to live with it

through time

but you knew it

all along

you who are wiser than i

see it coming

see it coming

see it coming

every time

how did you predict

the end of the world

when you can't see beyond

the end of your nose

would you look at the life i chose

baby it's you i need to tell it to

maybe no other will ever do

through time

shouldn't we be holding on

maybe no other will ever do

maybe no other will ever do

shouldn't we be holding on

maybe no other will ever do

maybe no other will ever do

shouldn't we be holding on

maybe no other will ever do

maybe no other will ever do

shouldn't we be holding on

maybe no other will ever do

maybe no other will ever do

proving us wrong all along

ideals of love

foolish romantic

ideals of love

could there be such a thing

how could there be such a thing

as beautifully flawed

ideals of love
