A While

When it rains, yeah it rains

We can be so unforgiving

It leaves us unforgiven

We're the same, we never change

It's the reason we're together

We're just waiting for the weather to pass

I've been rolling my days away

Come turn out the light that keeps me awake

I've been trying to sleep for a while

There'll be nothing left to talk about and no one left to hear

In a while, we'll throw water on these ashes

And these walls will disappear for a while

We've been caught in the cold light of day

Lost our luck, you put it down

Somewhere for safe keeping

Too safe, you don't remember

But it's okay, we'll make some more

It's you that I'll be needing

Not these books that we've been reading too long

I've been rolling my days away

Come turn out the lights that keep me awake

I've been trying to sleep for a while

There'll be nothing left to talk about and no one left to hear

In a while, we'll throw water on these ashes

And these walls will disappear for a while

We've been caught in the cold light of day

I've been rolling my days away

Come turn out the light that keeps me awake

I've been trying to sleep

I've been trying to sleep for a while

There'll be nothing left to talk about and no one left to hear

In a while, we'll throw water on these ashes

And these walls will disappear for a while

We've been caught in the cold light of day
