I can hear your car
As you're driving in circles
Reluctant to park
Until you're ready and stable
Yeah
So walk with me into the fire
Come on, follow me close behind
So we'll go where they won't know
Our secrets and sorrows
We should leave while we can
And be gone by tomorrow
Can't you see how the second hand turns?
We should go while the candle still burns
You hesitate to start
You just stand there with your hands bare
And wonder who you are
And you take to much to heart
So you build another thrill
Until this one falls apart
So we'll go where they won't know
Our secrets and sorrows
We should leave while we can
And be gone by tomorrow
Can't you see how the second hand turns?
We should go while the candle still burns
Have you ever let another put out your flame?
And have you ever said "I'm a fool to stay in the same place"?
So we'll go where they won't know
Our secrets and sorrows
We should leave while we can
And be gone by tomorrow
Can't you see how the second hand turns?
And we'll go where they won't know
Our secrets and sorrows
We should leave while we can
And be gone by tomorrow
Can't you see how the second hand turns?
We should go while the candle still burns
Said, we should go while the candle still burns
