I'm sitting here and flipping through excuses for why I shouldn't call you
Every muscle, every fibre, every hair object to the very idea
I just can't put my finger on it however hard I try to slap away the halo around you
Still it lingers and abruptly without warning bitter memories appear

When I think on it for long enough
Of all the time we wasted on each other's love
It's a wonder that I still believe the sun is coming up
tomorrow...

What was once so fine has been broken and burned
So I wait here in the dark for the light to return
Oh (I was blinded) I was blinded until I knew only the good love survives
(I was blinded) Until I understood that only the good love survives
Only the good love survives
And you and I were wasting time
And you and I were wasting time

All those wringing hands and cheap ideas we could reason as failures
But to run it through again would only serve to do nobody no good
So let the universe decide how we could loosen all the knots and tangled ways we came to
And resolved and never speak of it again, oh love if only we could

When I think on it for long enough
Of all the time we wasted on each other's love
It's a wonder that I still believe the sun is coming up
tomorrow...

What was once so fine has been broken and burned
So I wait here in the dark for the light to return
Oh (I was blinded) I was blinded until I knew only the good love survives
(I was blinded) Until I understood that only the good love survives
Only the good love survives
And you and I were wasting time

We were only wasting time...
