[00:20.00]
[00:21.64] When you think you've found something worth holding on to
[00:26.02] Were you reaching for attention, hoping she would notice you
[00:31.12] Collecting bottles and thrown-away cans
[00:36.26] Like she was returnable
[00:38.13] One day would refill your hands
[00:40.56] How she loved you, all you imagined
[00:44.63] Fit so well into your plans
[00:48.12]
[00:48.96] Maybe one day soon
[00:51.62] It will all come out
[00:53.74] How you dream about each other sometimes
[00:57.78] With the memory of
[01:00.22] How you once gave up
[01:02.52] But you made it through the troubled times
[01:06.93]
[01:13.65] Pining away every hour in your room
[01:18.75] Rolling with the motion, waiting til it's opportune
[01:23.36] Sitting there watching time fly past you
[01:27.74] Why do tomorrow
[01:29.96] What you could never do
[01:32.86] How she loved you
[01:35.17] All you imagined
[01:37.18] Everything you put her through
[01:39.99]
[01:40.92] Maybe one day soon
[01:43.48] It will all come out
[01:45.75] How you dream about each other sometimes
[01:49.54] With the memory of
[01:52.37] How you once gave up
[01:54.71] But you made it through the troubled times
[01:57.01]
[01:57.75] And it takes a lot of nerve to ask how she is doing
[02:01.90] Start with a weak foundation, you will end in ruins
[02:06.31] The ways the days and hours pass you'll never understand
[02:10.72] Falling like rain through your hands
[02:19.50]
[02:30.28] Maybe one day soon
[02:33.18] It will all come out
[02:35.51] How you dream about each other sometimes
[02:39.64] With the memory of
[02:42.23] How you once gave up
[02:44.30] But you made it through the troubled times
[02:46.51] Maybe one day soon
[02:49.13] It will all come out
[02:51.30] How you dream about each other sometimes
[02:55.42] With the memory of
[02:58.19] How you once gave up
[03:00.30] But you made it through the troubled times
[03:04.79]
