(MUSIC & LYRICS - MORETTI)
one thought has me turning back / a dozen point the other way / we act upon
desire, to each a hand for hire / and patience isn't worth the wait / you've got
knives in your eyes / you would be happy not to change your mind / I can't defend you truly / when you worry about smoke instead of putting out the fire / and if we work it out / chances abound we'd be standing our ground / for no one’s better sake (better say) goodbye / how faint might that light become / in focus, but at miles away? / although my position just gives you ammunition, be certain that I know my place / so is this how it ends, oh, with a whimper in the place of a bang? / I can't defend you truly / when I worry about smoke / instead of putting out the fire / and if we work it out / chances abound we'd be standing our ground / for no one’s better sake (better say) goodbye / we would be friends if we tried again / I’ll take second place just to end the race / for no one’s better sake / (better say) goodbye
