I was just a boy when my heart was stolen from me
A grieved and sorrowed boy for the thief would never love me
Then to my surprise I was swept away in madness
Her affections would be mine if I could sing her songs of sadness
But things change, people change, some things never change
But things change, people change, some things never change
No honor among thieves, I soon claimed what I was after
But fate had to release the hearts that had been captured
Years from now I know we both will look back grinning
If only I had known, some hearts just don't need winning, yeah
But things change, people change, some things never change
But things change, people change, some things never change
And the wait it wears me down, it wears me down
And the wait it wears me down, it wears me down
And the wait wears me down, wears me down
Wears me down, wears me down
And the wait it wears you down, it wears you down
And the wait it wears you down, it wears you down
And the wait wears you down, wears you down
Wears you down, wears you down
Wears you down, yeah
And the wait it wears you down, it wears me down
And the wait it wears you down, it wears me down
And the wait it wears you down, it wears you down, it wears you down
