[Verse 1]
Looking out across suburban yards
To the construct of our days through the thinning of the trees
How come I only build a house of cards
That gets blown to pieces by the fall's first fickle breeze?
When I feel that stirring, the illicit kiss
That's just the cool tongue of the devil with a sucker in his midst
[Chorus]
One day I'll change
You'll be the first one that I call
I owe you an apology
Too many thanks and that's not all
'Cause I've been running long before I learned to crawl
[Verse 2]
My calendar lies crumpled, laid to waste
It's been scrawled on, thumbed through and changed
Will this be the measure of my days?
Dinners and appointments and deadlines I can't make?
When I start to feel it making sense for me
That's just hope springing eternally (Yeah)
[Chorus]
One day I'll change
You'll be the first one that I call
I owe you an apology
Too many thanks and that's not all
'Cause I've been running long before I learned to crawl
Looking out across suburban yards
To the construct of our days through the thinning of the trees
How come I only build a house of cards
That gets blown to pieces by the fall's first fickle breeze?
When I feel that stirring, the illicit kiss
That's just the cool tongue of the devil with a sucker in his midst
[Chorus]
One day I'll change
You'll be the first one that I call
I owe you an apology
Too many thanks and that's not all
'Cause I've been running long before I learned to crawl
[Verse 2]
My calendar lies crumpled, laid to waste
It's been scrawled on, thumbed through and changed
Will this be the measure of my days?
Dinners and appointments and deadlines I can't make?
When I start to feel it making sense for me
That's just hope springing eternally (Yeah)
[Chorus]
One day I'll change
You'll be the first one that I call
I owe you an apology
Too many thanks and that's not all
'Cause I've been running long before I learned to crawl
