Gimme time, time, time
I'm staring at the ceiling
Going wild, wild, wild
I'm losing every feeling
So I cry, cry, cry
It's all so misconceiving
But I'll try, try, try
I'll try, try, try to ride it out
Ride it out
Everyone, one, one
Will be a disbeliever
Till you've won, won, won
And then you'll be the hero
And I wait, wait, wait
I try displaying patience
And I pray, pray, pray
I wait, wait, wait to ride it out
Ride it out
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
We made all our big mistakes
She says it'll be okay
We're taking it day by day (and I feel fine)
She's giving her heart away
We're taking it day by day
We're taking it day by day
So I walk, walk, walk
After dark to find you
And I talk, talk, talk
The loneliness will guide you
I don't care, care, care
Leave it all behind you
I'll be there, there, there
There, there, there
We'll ride it out
Ride it out
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
We made all our big mistakes
She says it'll be okay
We're taking it day by day (and I feel fine)
She's giving her heart away
We're taking it day by day
We're taking it day by day
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la
So I stare, stare, stare
The quiet just reminds me
If you care, care, care
I need you to remind me
We made all our big mistakes
She says it'll be okay
We're taking it day by day (and I feel fine)
She's giving her heart away
We're taking it day by day
We're taking it day by day
We made all our big mistakes
It's easy to walk away
We're taking it day by day (and I feel fine)
She's giving her heart away
We're taking it day by day
We're taking it day by day (and I feel fine)
