I'll be left holding pedals saying
Why this love gotta eat like a cancer?
All -consuming, too much for a human
But essential to the experience
breaking down the defense
I felt a pain that I'd never trade
A beacon, a light I'd never thought made
But lighthouse led boats astray
The lives you weave eventually fray
And all things great, they just fall to fate
Time and time and time it goes
Gotta hold on to this night
Pretend like everything's right,
Time and time will help it fade
And a love like this could never stay
the shine of diamonds turns to grey
And that's why I'm afraid
Cause I can't make it stay
And all the brighter things may fade
As the stars give way today
And the days just fold away
I was living life in the fast lane
Is that nothing could stick
The wheels on this furious highway,
I never could, but sometimes I try
You lose the will and it all flies by, yeah
All night through, never seein' you
there's only a broken hide -in
My life, two tennies on the concrete
I never thought we would ever meet
Stopped headin' my tracks,
Another love story goin' fiction to fact
Two lost hearts caught up in love's cloud
But things pass with the season
were a lot of different reasons, boy
I'm not as free as I appear to be
It's not that we're fading
Cause one night of ecstasy
Would be like heaven to me
I don't wanna fool around,
no, that's not what I'm about
I can't figure it out yet
Time and time and time it goes
Gotta hold on to this night
Pretend like everything's right,
Time and time will help it fade
And a love like this could never stay
the shine of diamonds turns to grey
And that's why I'm afraid
Cause I can't make it stay
And all the brighter things may fade
As the stars give way to day
And the days just fall away
