You always know just when your time is up
A train will whistle and a shoe will drop
I am the great remainder
I stay the same forever
You left home early, you were all dressed up
No need to say it, baby, "don't wait up"
I am the great remainder
I stay the same forever
We could talk for hours and dream away our past, but
Now we live our lives and time goes by so fast, we're
Slipping through the cracks
I can't get you back
If only you could see that the grass is never greener
I could tell that you had had enough
You saw right through me and you called my bluff
I am the great remainder
I stay the same forever
"You'll get over me," I heard you say
As the bus it slowly drove away
I am the great remainder
I stay the same forever
We could talk for hours and dream away our past, but
Now we live our lives and time goes by so fast, we're
Slipping through the cracks
I can't get you back
If only you could see that the grass is never greener
I won't give up on you like you gave up on me
I am the great remainder
I stay the same forever
I won't give up on you like you gave up on me
I am the great remainder
I stay the same forever
I won't give up on you like you gave up on me
I am the great remainder
I stay the same forever
I won't give up on you like you gave up on me
