Only For A Time - Civil Twilight

Tell me what you were thinking

Tell me what you were saying

Tell me what you were doing wrong

I’ll be your witness

I’ll be the stone you throw through the window

The shadowy room you lie in

The dirty rings in the basin

The creases under your eyes

Don’t let them beat you

Don’t even try to understand

It will be only for a time

Only for a time it will be

Everyone knows, it comes and goes

Yet everyone tries to hold it down

This precious moment

The blissful cloud we find ourselves in

It will be only for a time

Only for a time it will be

It will be only for a time

Only for a time it will be

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna see you cry

It will be only for a time

Only for a time it will be

It will be only for a time

Only for a time it will be

This will be only for a time

Only for a time it will be

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna see you cry

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna let you go

No, I never wanna see you cry
