I wouldn't ask if I saw you were in a rush, but it's half past ten and I'm the only one on the bus Please slow down, let me have a look The roundabout here was a corner before and it was there we took An oath of allegiance Just look what time does to a promise Something I brought upon myself (Think what I did could be seen as something of a brave thing) (What I did was the least expensive thing) If I saw you now, I could say that I kept the pact I could say I've been true, but that'd be after the fact To be honest It wasn't something I thought I'd do To be honest, I never planned to give up anything for you Now look where it brought me Just look what time does to a promise Something I brought upon myself (Couldn't do something like this without intention) (Not as if I did it behind my own back) Here to the right, my only proper home (Told them I would bring all the money on Monday) This is my only proper home (Anything on two wheels and my blood runs cold)
