Lyrics
take this heart, tear it apart
you may find it beating
like a clock that chimes all of our lives
second to second till it's all out of time
she watches my every move
the twist and crawl, the winding moods
as she goes to the mirror
washes her face, sees my clothes all over the place
"no, no, no, no, no, no, no"
it's been so long but i want you to stay
you're the one who's so strong
and i want you to stay
it's been so long
long, long
hop in the car and go for a ride
in the rear view mirror i see red rimmed eyes
my hand's in the pocket full of memories
in this tear stained coat that you gave to me
so long ago, long, long ago
it's been so long and i want you to stay
you're the one that's so strong
and i want you to stay
it's been so long and i want you to stay
you're the one that's so strong
and i want you to stay
it's been so long
long, long
