a lonely heart before it breaks
and put it in your little box of unwashed hands and mistakes
to tell you that i want to be with you tonight so bad it hurts
this could be perfect but you won't let it play out
and you just sit there with your folded arms in
wake up while it's still yours to take
before i get a better offer from someone who will stay
i don't believe in wasting time
and just before you know its gone
and it feels that today is like every other day
but i will forget about myself
put this book back on the shelf
this could be perfect but you won't let it play out
and you just sit there with your folded arms in
this could be perfect but you won't let it play out
and you just sit there with your folded arms in
and you say that you've changed
but you're basically the same
so you can calm your worried mind
'cause when i leave i wont be coming back this time
