When you turned and blew a kiss to me The candles all went out And everyone had knowing looks But you still had your doubts So I spit into an open palm And ran it through your hair, Because the birds that flew above your head Well, they just wouldn't dare And so, the moment's wasted on you And now the moment's gone And so, the moment's wasted on you And now the moment's gone Well your timing was impeccable You whispered in my ear But the sound of your teeth grinding Was all that I could hear So I gazed into an open palm And suddenly felt shy
Because the secrets it revealed Was that someday you would die And so, the moment's wasted on you And now the moments gone And so, the moment's wasted on you And now the moment's gone And now the moment's gone Well, you longed for an epiphany But all your talk was small Now the costume party's ended Will the ghosts return your call? And so the moment's wasted on you And now the moment's gone And so the moment's wasted on you And now the moment's gone And now, the moment's gone And now the moment's gone And now the moment's gone
