I watch the morning dawn upon your skin
A splinter in the light
It caught and frayed the very heart of us

It's been hiding there inside for all this time
How a sure thing winds up just like this
Clockwork silence only knows


And it's no one's fault
There's no black and white

Only you and me
On this endless night
And as the hours run away

With another life
Oh, darling can't you see
It's now or never

It's now or never

Sleeping anxious still at 3 am

We're trying far too hard
The tattered thought balloons above our heads
Sinking in the weight of all we need to say

Why's and what if's have since long played out
Left us short on happy endings


And it's no one's fault
There's no black and white
Only you and me

On this endless night
And as the hours run away
With another life

Oh, darling can't you see
It's now or never
It's now or never


You know that there's so much more


And it's no one's fault
There's no black and white
Only you and me

On our final night
And as the hours run away
With another life

Oh, darling can't you see
It's now or never
It's now or never
