Every minute crawls like an hour
Every day lasts a lifetime,
Since you've gone
Everything that was right is wrong
It's only the sorrow that grows strong

Now we can both take equal blame
But it doesn't take away the pain
I wish yesterday was tonight
I wish there was no reason to fight
If only the ivory towers would fall
Oh why must it be so predictable

It all semed so perfect
Why couldn't we just accept it
Now it's gone
We swore forever
Our love flowed like a river
Now there's drought in my soul

Now we can both take equal blame
But it doesn't take away the pain
I wish yesterday was tonight
I wish there was no reason to fight
If only the ivory towers would fall
Oh why must it be so predictable

Yeah I thought the winner takes all
Thought that I would be left with so much more
But this victory leaves me with only sorrow
Why must it be so predictable

I wish yesterday was tonight
I wish I was still holding you tight
If only the ivory towers would fall
Oh why must it be so predictable
