| It’s a question that I never learned to ask
|
| How far I’d follow you into the dark
|
| And it’s still a question that I’m too afraid to ask
|
| How far I’d follow you, how far I’d follow you
|
| When she saw that I’d tattooed my hands
|
| I said, «Mum, I don’t think I was ever gonna work for the bank»
|
| And I said that I was sorry about that line
|
| I only wrote it 'cause it rhymed
|
| We’re not those kids sitting on the swing set
|
| And I will follow you across the planet
|
| If we could take our time
|
| We’d get it right, we’d get it right
|
| He was so bitter when he said
|
| «They'll offer you the world, but they’ll leave you for dead»
|
| And nobody tried to understand
|
| Or at least act surprised when I said that
|
| I wasn’t the one who was unfaithful
|
| That I could see why people thought I was
|
| Sometimes making love is the only time I ever feel loved
|
| There was never any middle ground
|
| Now he sits alone in his one bedroom apartment
|
| Tells himself he’s happy and he made the right decisions
|
| And he expected that I was gonna fail and run back
|
| Well, fuck that
|
| But I’ll wait for you
|
| At the end of the earth is where I’ll wait for you
|
| And you can meet me there
|
| See, I never really stray far from here
|
| 'Cause my head just gets so loud
|
| That I can’t hear the words coming out of your mouth
|
| Sorry I don’t react the way you want me to sometimes
|
| I only wrote it 'cause it rhymed
|
| Your silhouette against the fire
|
| Where I thought I saw a UFO but it was just a lighter
|
| And we nearly died, shit, I’m still amazed how we survived
|
| You probably shouldn’t let me drive |
