Time is the obstacle when I'm trying to get to you.
Wanna run down the hours, sleep them off till I get to you.
Stop the world when I'm in your arms.
These city lights like falling stars have lost their way,
Been wishing on them every night while you're sleeping,
You're sleeping.
I used to say, dreams come true until you wake,
but I was digging my grave,
till I struck gold in your heart.
Now all these things,
I could never believe in,
maybe I can believe them,
maybe I can believe them.
Sometimes it's hard to look you long in the eyes,
you got that part of me babe I'm so used to hiding.
At your mercy in your arms.
I lie awake counting those planes we thought were shootings,
been wishing on them just in case,
one of them was ours.
I used to say, dreams come true until you wake,
but I was digging my grave,
till I struck gold in your heart.
Now all these things,
I could never believe in,
maybe I can believe them,
maybe I can believe them.
And we'll wipe out all the jaded years from here on,
we'll paint over the pain till it's all gone.
And we'll wipe out all the jaded years from here on,
we'll paint over the pain till it's all gone.
I used to say, dreams come true until you wake,
but I was digging my grave,
till I struck gold in your heart.
Now all these things,
I could never believe in,
maybe I can believe them,
maybe I can believe them.
