You've settled down into something secure But a gnawing feeling leaves you quite unsure Out of the race, off the market, for ages now Diving back in rekindles buried doubts You thought time would help to make things clear But after all this time, the ache won't disappear Found yourself in love, lost without a map Falling back on that ingrained romantic crap Time's an investment, but after all you've spent So many questions won't let you be content You're wondering now if you've made a mistake When your big romance jut leaves you with an empty ache You're feeling stale, like a stalemate, with each embrace From the back of your mind, to staring you in the face Restlessness, oh yes, but more profound Ship isn't sinking, oh no, it's run aground Your relationship is hollow at the core What the hell do you stay together for? When you finally admit That the love of your life is a farce That's when the ache just tears you apart
