The Passage of Time

I'm sorry I wasn't everything I wanted to be I'll make you breakfast any day of the week Thank you for teaching me that I don't have to be a try-hard Thank you for taking me in, for driving me over the bridge I said that I was done But I barely knew what it was And everything that'll come Between us will fade like the passage of time I'll love you for a lifetime that never truly stops We're just bodies that float in the ocean Together, apart Together, apart Like the trophy wives of ancient times I'll hold you up and count my blessings Said I was done But I barely knew what it was And everything that'll come Between us will fade like the passage of time There are people dancing in the street for you Your head works in mysterious ways There are gossamer strings round your fingers Watching your face turn into midnight I only like you when the stars align The pleasure is all mine Watching the bubbles rise Like rain in the summertime I wanna love you like The trains don't wait for no one Careless and certain I'm feeling calm Washing over my body And filling my palms I'm scrawled in a notebook Of parallel lines And I know that you're there And I wanna cry I said I was done But I barely knew what it was And everything that'll come Between us will fade like the passage of time
