I used to write
I used to write letters
I used to sign my nameI used to sleep at night
Before the flashing lights settled deep in my brainBut by the time we met
By the time we met the times had already changedSo I never wrote a letter
I never took my true heart, I never wrote it downSo when the lights cut out
I was lost standing in the wilderness downtownNow our lives are changing fast.
Now our lives are changing fast.
Hope that something pure can last.
Hope that something pure can last.
Now it seems strange
How we used to wait for letters to arrive
But what's stranger still
Is how something so small can keep you aliveWe used to wait.
We used to waste hours just walking around
We used to wait.
All those wasted lives in the wilderness downtownWe used to wait.
We used to wait.
We used to wait.
Sometimes it never came
We used to wait
Sometimes it never came
We used to wait
I'm still moving through the pain
I'm gonna write
A letter to my true love
I'm gonna sign my nameLike a patient on a table
I wanna walk again
Gonna move to the painNow our lives are changing fast
Now our lives are changing fast
Hope that something pure can last
Hope that something pure can lastWe used to wait
We used to wait
We used to wait
Sometimes they never came
We used to wait
Sometimes they never came
We used to wait
I'm still moving through the pain
We used to wait
We used to wait
We used to wait
We used to wait for it
We used to wait for it
Now we're screaming "sing the again"
We used to wait for it
We used to wait for it
Now we're screaming "sing the again"
I used to wait for it
I used to wait for it
Hear my voice screaming "sing the again"
Wait for it
Wait for it
Wait for it
