lyrics

You were but a young girl.
Not even 18.
You gave me your heartbeat.
I only had a dream.

But the dreams we dream, are useless.
They are only make-believe.
Like the moon in the gutter, reflections.
The day wears away.

We see them as they fade.
We watch them fade away.

Only time will tell for sure, what a bore!

So what if it's not perfect?
So what if we don't agree?

So what if I am not what you had in mind?
Could we change?

And I changed.

We danced beneath the satellites.
We danced away the city nights.
Now we just cry cry cry

I lost myself in you then.
You lost yourself in me.
We were so young.
We were so free.
God knows, we needed the release.

I never meant to hurt you.
I never even knew, I did.

A fool was I, a fool were you.
But foolish things, are what lovers do.

Our foolish hearts will break.
There is nothing they can't take.

Only time will for sure, such a bore?

So, what if it's not perfect?
So, what if we don't agree?
So, what if I am not the man
you wanted me to be?

Could we change?

Some things never change.

We danced beneath the satellites.
We danced away the lonely nights.
Now we just cry, cry cry, cry, cry, cry, cry.
