I never planned on all those years The constant taste of my own tears The million kisses goodbye, dear The dream that seemed so urgent then Became the nightmare I lived in I pray you'll never know how sad it's been But I'll be yours, ever making up time I'll be yours, ever making up time I hang my life on a long-gone crime Still I'll be yours, ever making up time So many rhymes I wrote for you Too many tunes that broke in two Too busy in denial to follow through Looking back it's clear I paid that wage God knows you've long-since turned that page But it breaks my heart up in a way Oh, and it will for all my days Still I'll be yours, ever making up time I'll be yours, ever making up time I hang my life on a long-gone crime Still I'll be yours, ever making up time So many rhymes I wrote for you Too many tunes that broke in two Too busy in denial to follow through Looking back it's clear I paid that wage God knows you've long-since turned that page But it breaks my heart up in a way Oh, and it will for all my days (Time) some of us walk through life slow tired (Time) it's all in how each one is wired (Time) you miss the love that might surround you (Time) please don't buy into that deal (Time) the piece they write off can't be real (Time) you just take it for your own Still I'll be yours, ever making up time I'll be yours, ever making up time I hang my life on a long-gone crime Still I'll be yours, ever making up time I'll be yours, ever making up time I'll be yours, ever making up time I hang my life on a long-gone crime Still I'll be yours, ever making up time Ever making up time Ever making up time
