I can't even start and I'm thinking "oh, why?" and I want it one day
You whisper in the dark a picture of time and nothing to say
You put in time just to see that all things dead and gone
I think you might turn me away
And would you still run at the sight of day?
And do you still feel that you'd throw it away?
And would you still lie if I ever told you?
And would you still say it's a coming of age?
♪
You can't even talk and you're thinking two times, "I gotta run"
A victim of time, a last dance night, in seconds done
I don't even want to begin this time, just to throw it away
I think I might turn you away
And would you still run at the sight of day?
And do you still feel that you'd throw it away?
And would you still lie if I ever told you?
And would you still say it's a coming of age?
I lost my heart while skipping stones
I can see it now, the ways it has to go
I lost my heart while skipping stones
I can see it now, the ways it has to go
♪
I can't even walk and I'm thinking three times, I want to stay
To put it in words, to feel this time with nothing to say
And I can't even start to think my life is gonna change
I wanted to know, you wanted to feel, but everything is too just deep
And would you still run at the sight of day?
And do you still feel that you'd throw it away?
And would you still lie if I ever told you?
And would you still say it's a coming of age?
I lost my heart while skipping stones
I can see it now, the ways it has to go
If I run to you like I always do, time and time again
For my heart is just a means to an end
