With a kiss that was heaven sent
And a look of ambivalence
Slouching off to find a brand new fascination

Put a plate on the stereo
Pine away for the romeo
Trying to smash your heart into a thousand summers


Did it have to be as typical as a tragedy
Yours, mine and our lives to compromise


I can say that i knew you when
You could shine like a diadem

Shining on a better life, a better you
Something you could turn into


Did it have to be as typical as a tragedy
Yours, mine and our lives to compromise


If i was the only one
If you were the last alive
Would we sit there like the amateurs

And watch our days go by
Waiting for the universe to die


If i was the only one
If you were the last alive
Would we sit there like the amateurs

And watch our days go by
Waiting for the universe to die
