about

sad song that accidentally came out on Valentine's Day...

lyrics

I think I’ve finally lost it
The tears all dried up
3pm now, I’ve been lying here
waiting something thats left

Watching the shadows
They pass and they fall
listening to voices they’re all laughing
on the other side of the wall

And I cry

(x2)
OOOoo

24 pairs of eyes
One for each hour of time
I wait for the phone to ring, I still don’t know why
I understood what you said across the line

holding numbers in my hands
Almost dialing them again
Put them back on the clock’s face and then
fall back to my pillow

And I cry

(x2)
OOOoo

Bridge:
Somethings different when you smile
You can’t hide anything
Im like a sketch next to oil paintings
A copied print from originals

Somewhere were on the other side
After the moon is swallowed by the tide
We can say we made it out alive
If I see you in a week or so

And I’ll say to you

(x2)
OOOoo
