One too many times
I fell over you
Once in a shadow
I finally grew

And once in a night
I dreamed you were there
I cancelled my flight
from going nowhere

[chorus]
It's all I can do
to keep waiting for you
It's all I can do
It's all I can do

One too many times
I twisted the gate.
When I was crazy
I thought you were great

I kept my renditions
of you on the wall
Where holiday romance
is nothing at all.

[chorus]

You wat in the wings
like a Saturday flirt
Protecting the judge
you don't want to get hurt

And once in a romance
it all comes to you,
as soon as you get it,
you want something new.
