i guess i had my chance, i'm told it was my obligation 

at dusk i held the ground and prayed for morning to come quickly 

that night i held your hand, together we had bits and pieces 

on that december night, you cried and cried and cried, but 



we held our lives by the whims that govern conversations 

we held our lives by the whims that govern conversations 

wait! hold on! i'm not finished... fine! 

never again! will he ruin mine 



december night, i'm told i had my obligations 

december night, i tried and tried and tried, but 



we held our lives by the whims that govern conversations 

we held our lives by the whims that govern conversations 

wait! hold on! i'm not finished... fine! 

never again! will he ruin mine 

wait! hold on! i'm not finished... fine! 

never again! will he ruin mine 





(when we were on we were on 

when we were off we were way off)
