You traded all your tears so I could see a happy face
You sat alone and read the writing on the wall
You broke your heart and banged your cool up as you fell from grace
You should`ve hung the net before you took the fall
The lines are pretty long here, but you`ll stand here anyway
(chorus)
Until you see this ain`t going over
There`s nothing left to show for
Til you see
Time ain`t gonna make up for the times you`d never wake up for me
I watched you build a castle on the beach one rainy day
I saw it fall apart and roll out with the tide
I think there`s something metaphric that I`m trying to say
Open up your soap box and just crawl inside
The lights are on but no one`s home
Stand there in the dark
(chorus)
