The Absence

Old times another white lie
Just to see you through
More tears, I'm drowning here
I'll keep an eye on you
The bell tolls for the other souls, in this town hall
No one ever really wins the fight
It's still my fault

And in the absence of wedding bells
there's only time
To through your fortune down a wishing well, wasting mine

The sky in the summer time is the colour of a bruise
Doesn't matter what you wear tonight
Either way you lose
Worry worry, honey, I'm so sorry I lied to you
Hurry now your window's closing in on you

And in the absence of wedding bells
there's only time
To through your fortune down a wishing well, wasting mine
And I've got secrets that she'll never tell
A broken crystal on a creaking shelf
And it's not over far as I can tell
I know I stumbled but I never fell, and I never will.

Yeah, I never will

And in the absence of wedding bells there's only time
To through your fortune down a wishing well, wasting mine
And I've got secrets that she'll never tell
A broken crystal on a creaking shelf
And it's not over far as I can tell
I know I stumbled but I never fell, and I never will
