[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Do you ever think about,
How to replace it,
Now the night turns in,
Into a poker tell,
And the day runs dry,
Where once was a well,
An enormous chill,
That you need to quell,
Hear the fishermen cough,
And the seagulls cry,
How they call your bluff,
When you touch the sky,
Do you ever feel,
After setting sail,
What looks far away,
Doesn't get any closer by.

[Interlude]

[Chorus 1]
We don't know enough of what we,
Have until it's gone they say,
It's heaven over there until the devil has another say,
You pray,
As if time will ever tell,
Politics and sympathies 200 different kinds of glee,
I wonder what the world would be,
When everybody's in the sea,
I wait,
As if time will ever tell.

[Verse 2]
Let the preachers whine,
They haven't got a clue,
When the signal dies,
What do I really lose,
There are many ways,
How to replace,
These tired lines,
Of these modern blues,
So the summer creaks,
When the daughter speaks,
It is in our gift,
To plug up the leaks,
Do you ever think,
As if time will ever tell,
Garbage in the mail today I'll send them on a holiday,
Someone should tell them they should stay,
Around the clock, eternity,
We'll see,
As if time will ever tell,
Suspicion is the lightning rod, believe in you believe in god,
I tried it out, I liked it not,
I love your feet they make me hot,
We wait,
As if time will ever tell.

[Chorus 2]
We are careful,
We're not running to the hills,
Our feathers will be,
Sticking to our skin,
What are we in for,
When the night comes,
We won't falter we had,
Years of light and,
We get smaller, we will win,
What are we in for.

[Verse 3]
Was it good for you,
Cause I can hardly speak,
When the flesh is strong,
Then the mind is weak,
Still we soldier on,
We turn up the noise,
So we don't hear the gong,
Of our losing streak,
Do you ever think about,
How to replace it,
How the night turns in,
Into a fire hose,
For you to get,
Your daily dose,
You stand naked,
As the cold wind blows.

[Chorus 3]
Leave no traces,
Abandon everything,
Don't replace it,
You won't miss a thing,
And feel,
As if time will ever tell,
Tracks are covered,
When you're looking back,
Names and lovers,
Lost under the stack,
It seems,
Now it's time to break the spell,
Now break it up,
Now break it up,

As if time will ever tell.
