The sweetest hearts are laid aside
Told to wait their turn for a while
As time exposes every lie
You looked my way and I knew why
It doesn't have to be this way
More like forever than just today
Less like leather more like lace
Three words from a poisoned well
Tried to swallow, couldn't keep them down
Never spoken till tonight
and both you and I know why
It doesn't have to be this way
More like forever than just today
Less like leather more like lace
There's more than just hope to hope for
This love is making me tired
There's more than just hope to hope for
This love is dragging me down
With the morning, with the light
I'll uncover the words I couldn't find
I'll want to make everything all right
I'll look at you and you'll know why
