Tekst piosenki:
I don't have time to think,
About such silly little things,
As they say I'm young,
And I lack that certain sense of wisdom,
Well, her expression changed to that of protest,
And when she noticed that I noticed,
Then she quickly took it back, smiling,
"Well yeah, you're young,
But to me you're perfect",
And I told her: "you oughta know that,
That's really not true,
You don't know some of the things,
That I can do, I can be mean,
Lord, I can be cruel",
"Well, so can I" is all she said,
As she leaned forward,
And kissed me on the head,
As the air around the car grew cool.
The stars, they were not quite aligned,
And I was born at the wrong time,
Oh, you won't be mine,
And it's nobody's fault,
It's just that fate has been unkind.
Well, I'm starting to feel cold,
And my pants are sliding down,
She said I'm warm on the car,
With her pants on the ground,
And the wind blows around,
And I know that she's lying,
So let's get out of the cold,
By the warm fireplace,
And the dim orange glow,
Reflects the tears falling on your face,
It's no disgrace,
I'll hold you if you're crying,
Well, now that's all in the past,
And I'm not one to say,
Good times can't last,
I just miss her, that's about all,
And now, she floats around in my head,
I see her lying next to me in my bed,
In that empty space between me and the wall.
The stars, they were not quite aligned,
And I was born at the wrong time,
Oh, you won't be mine,
And it's nobody's fault,
It's just that fate has been unkind.
Well, it brings me comfort to think,
That in some past life,
That maybe we were lovers,
Maybe she was my wife,
And it brings me strife to think,
That may all be an illusion,
'Cause when she's not around,
Well, all my fantasies melt,
And I try to play out all the cards,
I've been dealt,
But even the best gambler,
Can't place no bet in all this confusion,
And now, we're lying,
With our eyes closed underneath a tree,
And no one's in the park,
Except for her and me,
And she says she's gotta go home,
But I act like I don't care,
Now, I'm the one crying,
And she's holding me,
With her lips close to mine,
She whispers: "It's meant to be",
And I open my eyes,
And I'm kissing nothing but air,
So I'm alone in my home,
In the cold moonlight,
And I know in my dreams,
I'll be with her tonight,
So I take another drink,
'Cause I don't wanna think,
Yeah, I danced a ring of fire,
And pushed it to the brink,
And now, I'm stomping on the cracks,
Of this family ice skating rink,
And the bottom's falling out,
And we're all starting to sink,
And now, nothing, no nothing,
But our own love can save us.
