|
He was walking across the wire |
|
Holding a loaded gun |
|
Taking out every lightbulb |
|
One by one |
|
And she was building brand new walls |
|
To keep her safe and sound |
|
Sometimes a place to live |
|
Is just a place to hide |
|
One more year |
|
One more year |
|
Let's hold our breath |
|
And give it just |
|
One more year |
|
Well he was sparks and gasoline |
|
All fire and command |
|
The warmest comfort dies |
|
In the coldest hands |
|
And she was two steps from the edge |
|
But holding on somehow |
|
Even God himself couldn't blame her now |
|
One more year |
|
One more year |
|
Let's hold our breath |
|
And give it just |
|
One more year |
|
Now he's working on a plan |
|
Learning to make her smile |
|
Maybe a change of pace |
|
Or a change of style |
|
And she's walking across the wire |
|
Holding a loaded gun |
|
Hoping that what we feel |
|
Ain't what we've become |
|
One more year |
|
One more year |
|
Let's hold our breath |
|
And give it just |
|
One more year |
