lyrics

Get over yourself
Go on, go on, go on
You see your eyes
Are closed but still open wide
And I’m so sorry
I Sold you out
It’s not forever
It’s just for now

Not cause of why I feel
That borrowed time
Means that you’re all I have
Putting your hand in mine
Not cause of honesty
Not cause you feel left out
I know you’re trying to sleep
But when the lights go down
You promised you’d wait for me

If only your time
Wasn’t so precious
I would spend it

As long as you wait for me

You promised you’d wait
You promised you’d wait
You promised you’d wait for me

As long as you wait
As long as you wait
As long as you wait for me
