and I can' t wait to see you again.

The water looks bluer through her pretty eyes.

with a serious look on his face.

Love arrives safely with suitcase in tow.

To trust. To hope. To care.

Hate sits alone on the hood of his car.

Without much regard to the moon or the stars.

Lazily killing the last of a jar
C G F
of the strongest stuff you can drink.

Love takes a taxi, a young man drives.

cause he might never see her again.

The clock in the kitchen says two fifty five,

And the clock in the kitchen is slow.

Love has been waiting, patient and kind.

Just wanting a phone call or some kind of sign,

That the one that she cares for, who' s out of his mind,

Will make it back safe to her arms.

Hate stumbles forward and leans in the door.

C G F
I' m yours and that' s it, whatever.

I should not have been gone for so long.
C G F
I' m yours and that' s it, forever."
C G F
You' re mine and that' s it, forever.
