[Verse 1]

And just one moment

Is all I ask for

Just one talk between us

And just one second now

Some perfect clarity

And eighty hours alone

[Pre-Chorus]

And I swore to god that I wouldn't cry

And I swore to you I can't see

How it's anything more than a lie

[Chorus]

And all these years

I won't ever let them go

All my fears

They'll bring me down, down so low

And I'll be missing you

For a lifetime

But eighteen years are better than none

Until the time comes for me

To turn to dust

[Verse 2]

So I'll get on fine

My mind turned inside out

I've always found it easy

To hide these thoughts of mine

A collapsing state of mind

I'll sink to where thoughts can't find me

[Pre-Chorus]

And I swore to god that I wouldn't cry

And I swore to you I can't see

How it's anything more than a lie

[Chorus]

And all these years

I won't ever let them go

All my fears

They'll bring me down, down so low

And I'll be missing you

For a lifetime

But eighteen years are better than none

Until the time comes for me

To turn, to turn

[Verse 3]

And we all hurt

And time heals nothing at all

Decisions made and they cut me off

From all I've ever known

And I can't think

No, I can't breathe

I can't be what I want to with this weight on me

[Bridge]

I wish I had

Selective amnesia

To keep you away from me

[Chorus]

But I'll be missing you

For a lifetime

But eighteen years are better than none

Until the time comes for me

To turn to dust
