And I can promise you I'll change,
I'll make the time I spend, well spent,
And you can punish me for all of my mistakes
But how was I to know it would like this?
To know it would feel like this?
To learn everything I hate, would be come everything I miss

I'll change into what, into what, I was scared to know
Into what, into what, you were scared to grow

And I will be alone forever, I know
And I will love you every day until the Earth surrounds my bones
'Cos I don't know your hair,
And I don't know your lips,
And I've been wondering how long it takes for my love to give in

I was left without a conscience in my head
You know I would want to give you everything,
But couldn't afford to give you anything
And I was on my own for the first time in my life,
I had pressure from all angles, honey,
You were all I had

So change into what, into what, you were scared to grow into

And I can promise you I'll change,
I'll make the time I spend, well spent,
And you can punish me for all of my mistakes
But how was I to know it would like this?
To know it would feel like this?
To learn everything I hate, would be come everything I miss

I'll change into what, into what, I was scared to know
Into what, into what, you were scared to grow

And I will be alone forever, I know
And I will love you every day until the Earth surrounds my bones
'Cos I don't know your hair,
And I don't know your lips,
And I've been wondering how long it takes for my love to give in

(And oh, what cursed place this is I'm waiting for the one)
(And oh, what cursed place this is I'm waiting for love)

And I will be alone forever, I know
And I will love you every day until the Earth surrounds my bones
'Cos I don't know your hair,
And I don't know your lips,
And I've been wondering how long it takes for my love to give in
