Lyrics

[Verse 1] Let's not drag this out Everything's in motion Though I've only ever loved you kind And with devotion Remember when I met you You were leaving from the start I thought one day you'd probably just come home And break my heart [Pre-Chorus] It's funny what you know And still go on pretending With no good evidence You'll ever see that happy ending [Chorus] You were looking for your distance And sensing my resistance You had to do your will I had to learn the hard way We were just an empty dream too big For hope alone to fill [Verse 2] I know I'm a dreamer So I'll give you that Still I hope I'm more than just a place You laid your hat You're a land of secrets Its only citizen And though I paid my dues I was never allowed in [Pre-Chorus] And so I am a stranger Especially today 'Cause I get sad and lonely And you get your way [Chorus] You were looking for your distance And sensing my resistance You had to do your will I, I had to learn the hard way That we were just an empty dream too big For hope alone to fill [Bridge] Holding on for change i know We never stood a chance So I could only wait And watch you slip right through my hands [Chorus] You were always looking for your distance And sensing my resistance You had to do your will I, I had to learn the hard way We were just an empty dream too big For hope alone to fill
