The table looked nice she said
She said "you set it very well"
I told her I was nervous
She said that she could tell
"Your dress looks nice" I say, "it's always been my favorite one"
I could tell that she was nervous
At least I'm not the only one
Yeah well baby, baby
Yeah well baby, baby
I'm wondering what you're thinking
Her plane takes off at ten
We've got to leave the house by eight
She's packing up her suitcase
We're always running late
"I'm taking this" she says
It's our picture in a frame
She's hoping it can hold us
Keep everything the same
Yeah well baby, baby
It's probably wishful thinking
I was told not long ago
I'd always be the one for you
But what you sold was a piece of time
That doesn't quite belong to you
And in a year we'll claim
That everything is still the same
But here's an example of things gone wrong
And I'll find a girl that is just like you
And she'll want me to love her
What am I to do?
Tell me what do you think I will do
I was told not long ago
I'd always be the one for you
But what you sold was a piece of time
That doesn't quite belong to you
And I dont know if what we own
Is ever there to hold on to
Cause what you sold was a piece of time
That doesn't quite belong to you
And in a year we'll claim
That everything is still the same
