Deadline

Remember what we did before we decided to get serious?
We'd just get drunk together and pass out on your floor
Perhaps we've made a grave mistake
We've swept away the joy of small and tender moments-and lost our focus on today

Now we're on a deadline-a deadline
Our future's reached a deadline-a deadline
I can't take it anymore
The sun is fading on the shore
I just can't take it anymore
I know it's gone

There was a time when things got tough
I couldn't tell if we would stick together or if we'd had enough-we'd had enough

Now we're on a deadline-a deadline
Our future's gone-a deadline-a deadline
I can't take it anymore, The sun is fading on the shore
I just can't take it anymore

Everything we've loved has all been torn away
We're moving from push to shove-the sweet caresses marred in sorrow
Why should we even try to fight another day?
Let's move far beyond this love-it isn't love anymore anyway.

I still want to recapture it
The spirit that love had when we got started
The admiration and the bliss

Perhaps we've finally hit the deadline-the deadline
Our final moments on a deadline-a deadline
Couldn't take it anymore
We've set our hearts and minds to war
I couldn't take it anymore

Everything we've loved has all been torn away
We're moving from push to shove-the sweet caresses marred in sorrow
Why should we even try to fight another day?
Let's move far beyond this love-it isn't love anymore anyway
