[Verse 1]

Can't wrap my arms around the pictures in my head

I've still got a ways to go

I'm always gone, so we talk on the phone

When I hang up, me and my hang-ups are alone

[Chorus]

Until then, I'll pretend

Until then, I promised you I wouldn't bend

Until then, I'll spend my time

Waiting until then

[Verse 2]

And how about you? Can you promise me you'll wait?

We've still got a ways to go

Temptation rules the Earth, and I'm no perfect saint

My insecurities and love will have to wait

[Chorus]

Until then, I'll pretend

Until then, I promised you I wouldn't bend

Until then, I'll spend my time

Waiting until then

[Bridge]

We're not the first to try

We're not the last to fail

But I know we can succeed

We've got to hold it up or it will fall

[Chorus]

Until then, I'll pretend

Until then, I promised you I wouldn't bend

Until then, I'll spend my time

Waiting until then

Waiting until then

Waiting until then
