lyrics

STANDING STILL AS TIME SLIPS BY
FUNNY HOW THERE’S SO LITTLE LEFT TO SAY
HEARD THE NEWS ANOTHER FRIEND OF MINE
CAUGHT A RIDE OUT OF THIS TOWN THE OTHER DAY
FOR SOME THINGS THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES
TWO A.M. LIGHTS ARE BRIGHT
WE’VE BEEN HERE A TIME OR TWO BEFORE
WE FIND OURSELVES ALONE AGAIN
A SPELL THAT KEEPS ON COMING AROUND FOR MORE
FOR SOME THINGS THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES
EACH DAY I CONVINCE MYSELF THAT ITS ALL JUST A BLINK AWAY
WE’LL STAND HERE TOGETHER DENYING THE ONES WHO REMAIN AFRAID
TIME WILL ERASE OUR YOUTHFULLNESS
BUT WE’LL ALL APPEAR THE WISER
FOR SOME THINGS THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES
BUT THIS IS BOUND TO HAPPEN
SOMETHING’S ABOUT TO HAPPEN
