Paroles de If We Were Words (we Would Rhyme)

Wandering hearts,
Ticking together,
But always apart,
Open the door and the future restarts,
But I'd never claim you were mine,
Just if we were words we would rhyme.

Caution then regret,
A cowardly dog barking empty threats,
Backtracking,
Dancing,
As patterns are set,
But I'd never claim you were mine,
Just if we were words we would rhyme.

Picked and processed within twenty seven days,
Delivery free.
Send me round the globe and back again to you a flower.
Wheels come off and hobble over to the next replacement of choice.
But you were the sentence that gave me a voice,
Now I cry,
As we by the by.

And I will always wonder,
How it would be if we never had met,
Life would be easier, And I'd never claim you were mine,
Just if we were words,
We would rhyme,
If we were words,
We would rhyme.
