Intro

God this is hard you've had no sleep, you thought of nothing else for weeks

You begin your lines, and fumble with your purse

It's been eating you and you don't know what to do

And your lie, only made it worse

You can't expect him to understand, he's not a saint, he's just a man

And you know, that you can't change what he did

But if you had 40 lives, you d get it right by the 39th,

As it is, all that you could ask, all this will pass

God, you wish like hell, you hadn t done it and you tell

Him, how much you regret it

But you're talking to yourself, you're as lonely and as desperate

As a kettle boiling, with no there to get it

All the words you meant to say, hang in the air then float away

And vanish into the end of a dying day

But if you had 40 lives, you d get it right by the 39th,

As it is, all that you could ask, all this will pass

[Don t lie, ah ah ah]

And if only you hadn't stayed, and if only you'd been delayed

And it s funny what a difference a minute makes

But if you had 40 lives, you d get it right by the 39th

As it is, all that you could ask, all this will pass
