Permanent Tourists Lyrics by The Graduate

Only Every Time

0

[Verse 1]
Alone on a plane
I woke to the engine's stop
Planned a course outside just to get caught up
By every obstacle along the way
So much to explain and only a single day to plead my case
There's nothing else to do
Just hope it's not too late
For far too long, I kept you in the dark
I can't believe it took so long to start
[Chorus]
How can I find you now?
'Cause it feels like time is running out
And I said when I left that I would not ever let you down
I've got to find my way back somehow
I am much older now
And I feel like time is running out
When we get to the end can you promise that you'll be around
If I make you that promise now?
[Verse 2]
Back out on the endless road that's become my home
This entire year on the lam has shown me
All the more that this is in my blood
I don't mean to alarm
But the past two months have left me hysterical
It's time for something new
I get crazy without you
And all along, we tried to keep apart
I can't believe it took so long to start
[Chorus]
How can I find you now?
'Cause it feels like time is running out
And I said when I left that I would not ever let you down
I've got to find my way back somehow
I am much older now
And I feel like time is running out
When we get to the end can you promise that you'll be around
If I make you that promise now?
[Bridge]
Driving back to our town
Take it slow, keep it down
Put this mess in the ground
(The longer that we wait, the harder it'll be)
Just my luck, you came around
(So if you want to stay, why don't you come with me?)
Now it seems we'll always shine
Mine in yours, yours in mine
