How long before we get this thing together
And tie up all the loose ends
And you decide to put your happiness in my hands?

Oh, get off, we can't be like this forever
You keep saying that you'll try to fix it
But you will not, then you're still waiting for the bricks to come

A hand on my heart, I've been waiting
For someone like you to pop my bubble
And all these songs
Nearly all the songs are lies except this one

One more round, we both want the trouble dealt with
And we both know where it's coming from
And we're taking our time and we're dancing because we can

Now I hate these songs that just love reduce to couplets
As if a verse can sum up love
Like love needs a chorus to make it real

A hand on my heart, I've been waiting
For someone like you to pop my bubble
And all these songs
Nearly all the songs are lies except this one

How long before you care to undo the knot
That you tied up in my stomach
And get to dance like we know we want to dance
Instead of dancing like we don't want to dance

A hand on my heart, I've been waiting
For someone like you to pop my bubble
And all these songs
Nearly all the songs are lies except this one
