• that watch on your wrist
    is counting up the minutes, till you see me again
    that watch on your wrist is counting up the hours till we're more than just friends
    that watch on your wrist is counting up the years till we die together
    stay with you, ask me to, ask me your question and i'll answer

    how long have you been lying?
    how long have you been decieving?
    and I wish i could be believing
    but i guess we need time.
    how long?

    i guess the moral of the story, is that you would bore me
    but i still wish you were here
    that one night
    after that fall
    i was there holding onto your life
    in the hospital


    how long have you been lying?
    how long have you been decieving?
    and I wish i could be believing
    but i guess we need time.
    how long?

    when you told me it was an accident
    i could easily see, that you had emotions
    about all these things, and no matter how many feet you jump
    I'll catch you after your fall
    i understand you know
    we've been through it all


    how long have you been lying?
    how long have you been decieving?
    and I wish i could be believing
    but i guess we need time.
    how long?

    how long, need time
    i'm yours, your mine
    i guess, the mess
    of your heart
    the ink splodge on the note
    that you wrote
    the blood from your tears
    capsuled all your fears


    how long have you been lying?
    how long have you been decieving?
    and I wish i could be believing
    but i guess we need time.
    how long?
