lyrics

It's going on two weeks
Yeah we've lost the will to speak
In a game of give or take that's closely fought
But before this ship does sink
can I have just one more drink?
So not to think all that which could have been
Now has come to naught

Well it's going on a month
That I've longed for your sweet touch
and I'm drawing certain blanks in the between
Like was it ever good? Or have I misunderstood?
Reconstructed fragments faded into silvery daydreams

Oh
For every trip and tumble
Well I've fumbled fifty words
that I meant to say a different way
But nothing would have worked
It's a shame to come to terms

It's going on a year
And it's yet to disappear
The doubt that lingers languidly about
And it burdens me to have to say
That I thought we'd end up okay
But clearly victim to some things
You never can rebound

Oh
For every slip and stumble
Well I fumbled forty-five
Shitty scripted lines
At least I tried to outrun my demise
"At least I tried" is more than you could say

What could I say to fill this blank that separates?
I'd ramble on to your heart's content
What could I do to bring this feeling back to you?
I'm so sorry, this wasn't what I meant

Oh
For every trip and tumble
Well I've fumbled forty verbs
The most egregious being "love"
And yeah, you saw me at my worst
Well that must count for something after all

What could I say to fill this blank that separates?
I'd ramble on to your heart's content
What could I do to bring this feeling back to you?
I'm so sorry, this wasn't what I meant
