lyrics

One more time,
I find a little more as I unwind
A part that's rarely ever seen the light

One by one,
I gather glimpses of the good I've done
I stop to think about how far I've come
I see me better when I'm not alone

Patience, pleasure, money and time -
All the things I hoped were mine
Maybe all I really need
Is hidden right in front of me

It's alright,
I have her love and so does she have mine
It isn't fair to keep it tethered down

But all these changes haven't been a breeze
A fickle fantasy of flawless ease
We're working hard to make it through the night
I hold the hope that we will be alright

We just want a little time
You be yours and I'll be mine
Leave the silver cage behind
Put it on the mantle for a while

All this time I couldn't see
What was right in front of me --
In the end I'd rather be
Ruled by hope instead of fear

The spark becomes a flame,
And there's no one else to blame
But that doesn't stop it burning all the same

We clashed and then we cried,
Drove you home without a fight
Still I hoped that I would hear from you tonight
