You know how to build me up, or make me feel a mess You can tear me to the core with just three words or less Before I was always good as gold You were good as gone Spring time came, I was in bloom But by september overgrown The only way to get you out my brain Was to let my head get stoned I felt so jaded, so blue After you left me in the cold All we had was time All we had was time All I had was mine But all of you was never mine Slowly losing my mind I've been losing my mind All we had was time But all of you was never mine Are you gonna build me up Or make me feel a mess? I always wanna hear more But I get three words or less I'll light one up for you tonight Wrapped in all gold plate I know you'll wake up and realise one day But then it'll be too late All we had was time All I had was mine But all of you was never mine Slowly losing my mind I've been losing my mind All we had was time But all of you was never mine Cos before I was always good as gold When you were good as gone
