Lyrics

you showed patience
cos it's a virtue
because it adds up
and it makes me owe you
i think i love you
because you love me back
but it's hard to keep track

whatever discount
for whatever reason
whatever good cause
you believe in
every time you open up
you are a silhouette
and i cross a desert
past this doorstep

and when it strikes two
you will know what i came to do
before it strikes three
the door will click shut behind me

i'll break a promise
i'll pay attention
you'll make an effort
we'll never mention
i think i need you
and i think you'll need it back
and it's hard to
keep on the right track

and when it strikes two
you won't know what came over you
before it strikes three
the door will click shut behind me
and when it strikes four
you'll pick me up off the floor
