I've got no patience for dreams Unless they're my own It's the perfect metaphor For how I treated our love You could never trust me You could never let it go Long enough to see me Only to remember the love that we made The house that we shared But now it's too late Maybe in five years time We could get back together We could forget our pain Or we could forget each other ♪ I never gave you a reason To have any faith in me When I first said "I love you" I was high on ecstasy When I came down I swear I still felt it You couldn't trust it You couldn't trust me Only to remember The dog that we shared The sex and the violence It's all just too sad Maybe in five years time We could get back together We could forget our pain Or we could forget each other Maybe in five years time We could get get back together If I could ever call you mine I would be yours forever Forever, forever, forever, forever ♪ You're a once in a lifetime girl But I could never tell the shit from the roses Looking through me like you want me to go Now I live with the choices We went from friends to lovers In the course of a weekend What did you think would happen? (Stupid) We got on like a house on fire Just to watch it all burn down We could get back together We could get back together We could get back together We could get back together We could get back together ♪ I saw myself in you Saw only what I wanted to You are a once in a lifetime girl But I could never tell the shit from the roses Said I build you a courtyard When I look into your tangerine eyes I could give up Everything is meaningless Life with you is enough We could get back together ♪ And if the whole world goes Mad Max tonight I'll suffer silently And if we can't work it out I'll miss you with dignity I'll be living with the ghost of girl I love For the rest of my life
