If we put our heads together, I think we can salvage it   If we ride the stormy weather, will we really benefit?   Is there anything left to save now anyway?      When you're near my heart beats quicker, faster   It's your skin as pale as alabaster   It has to be, it has to end   Losing a lover, gaining a friend      Yesterday your virtue inspired me   And yesterday you ignited the flames that burnt inside of me   So why when I wake up today are the ashes about us?      Now i've lost the strength to crush a flower   And now I grow weaker with the passing hours   You once was the fire, you once was the glow   I was so sure then, and now I don't know      I've wasted time away,   But I think that it's ok cos   I've wasted time away with you      Now look what we've built together   We didn't waste anything   We've built a fire that burns too strong to die   Or am I a liar who smothers the flames?      When you're near my heart beats quicker, faster   It's your skin as pale as alabaster   It has to be, it has to end   Losing a lover, lying to a friend      I've wasted time away,   But I think that it's ok cos,   I've wasted time away with you
