[00:10.69] Waved goodbye on the other side then said,
[00:12.56] "Hello don't you ever leave me."
[00:15.72] She crossed the room the room and she tried to hide and said,
[00:22.41] "I told you once why don't you believe me?"
[00:29.22] And the pink light shined knocked me blind I said
[00:32.16] "Would you mind if I tried to make this easy?"
[00:36.87] She clenched her eyes and rolled her fists and
[00:40.93] Wondered out loud what it takes to please me.
[00:48.41] But I was halfway to the door and in the street
[00:51.60] The band was playing just for me.
[01:11.41] I once knew her like I knew me nobody could
[01:16.44] See how she could own me.
[01:20.58] In her room I was petrified and tried my best
[01:25.20] To hide how she could use me.
[01:29.57] In neon signs a hundred feet high no doubt
[01:32.84] Left forever she would want me.
[01:38.95] And I was left in no such doubt that in that
[01:42.37] One sweet moment she would haunt me.
[01:48.37] And in my dreams and in my nightmares
[01:50.73] The band was there playing just for me.
[01:58.99]
[02:15.64] "i would die for you she cried,"
[02:16.89] I tried not to decide how I would leave her.
[02:20.51] There was nothing left to tell myself and
[02:23.29] Wonder if I could believe her.
[02:30.14] No time to hide, no time to hide,
[02:32.33] no time to watch the world pass me by,
[02:35.14] No time to grin, no time to choose,
[02:36.83] No time to chase the ghost from my shoes,
[02:39.27] No time to win, no time to bawl, no time to creep,
[02:42.58] And no time to crawl,
[02:43.70] No time to sleep, no time to sin,
[02:45.89] No time to lose and nothing to win.
[02:48.33] No time for heroics, no time to feed,
[02:50.39] Nothing to confess or to conceed,
[02:52.64] No time to save, no time for love,
[02:54.77] Sex was a curse sent from above,
[02:57.02] No time to cry, no time to explain,
[02:59.18] Nothing to scream and no one to blame,
[03:01.30] No time for silence, no time at all,
[03:03.51] No time to fail and no where to fall.
[03:06.25] No time to hide, no time to lie,
[03:07.94] No time to watch the world pass me by,
[03:10.19] No time to grin, no time to choose,
[03:12.32] No time to chase the ghost from my shoes,
[03:14.44] No time to sleep, no time to sin,
[03:16.88] No time to lose and no time to win.
