Now the time has elapsed
It inevitably has come to pass
That I write for you at last
A song, a rhyme
Oh, to tell you the truth of it
I'm a little confused myself
Is it through memory's rose tinted glass
I have come to ask?
Or is it a love that was meant to last
Through time itself?
Proving us wrong all along
Shouldn't we be holding on?
It's a silly thing really
That you shouldn't believe in
Nothing too complicated
Endlessly formulated
Foolish romantic ideals of love
Could there be such a thing?
How could there be such a thing?
As beautifully floored?
We'll make mistakes and then
Life is the art of learning to live with it
Through time
But you knew it
All along
You who are wiser than I
See it coming,
See it coming,
See it coming,
Every time
How did you predict
The end of the world
When you can't see beyond
The end of your nose?
Would you look at the life I chose?
Baby it's you I need to tell it to
Maybe no other will ever do
Through time
Shouldn't we be holding on?
Shouldn't we be holding on?
Maybe no other will ever do
Maybe no other will ever do
Shouldn't we be holding on
Maybe no other will ever do
Maybe no other will ever do
Shouldn't we be holding on
Maybe no other will ever do
Maybe no other will ever do
Shouldn't we be holding on
Maybe no other will ever do
Maybe no other will ever do
Proving us wrong all along
Ideals of love
Foolish romantic
Ideals of love
Could there be such a thing
How could there be such a thing
As beautifully flawed
Ideals of love
