Three Weeks' Time
Looking back I guess I should've known
Judging by your eyes and change of tone
That part of you was part of history
But now it's all becoming clear to me
That ever since you made your way back home
You act as if you'd rather be alone
But the silence leaves me guessing in the dark
It seems distance was the thief that got your heart
And I don't know if I can bring it back
'cause it's looking like it's much too late for that
So will we reach a compromise
On these lies we've been hiding behind?
'Cause I give up trying to rationalize
If three weeks' time is all it takes to change your mind
So where's the girl you used to let me talk to?
'Cause lately it's been hard to get a word through
And when I do, it's all the same to you
You just shake it off, and tell me it's not true
And I don't know if I can bring you back
'Cause it's looking like it's much too late for that
Will you change it back again?
Above it all you were my friend
You were my friend
Or is it lost forever?
Maybe it's all for the better
The better
So is there anywhere to go from here?
My vision's blocked by memories and fear
And I've grown tired of playing this old part
Even though I know my lines by heart
