If I can hold on to just one thought for long enough to know
Why my mind is moving so fast and the conversation is slow
Burn off all the fog and let the sun through to the snow
Let me see your face again before I have to go
I have seen you in the movies and in those magazines at night
And I saw you on the barstool when you held that glass so tight
And I saw you in my nightmares but I'll see you in my dreams
I might live a thousand years before I know what that means
Once there was a friend of mine who died a thousand deaths
His life was full of parasites and countless idle threats
He trusted in a woman and on her he made his bets
Once there was a friend of mine who died a thousand
If I can hold on to just one thought for long enough to know
Why my mind is moving so fast and the conversation is slow
Burn off all the fog and let the sun through to the snow
Let me see your face again before I have to go
Why my mind is moving so fast and the conversation is slow
Burn off all the fog and let the sun through to the snow
Let me see your face again before I have to go
I have seen you in the movies and in those magazines at night
And I saw you on the barstool when you held that glass so tight
And I saw you in my nightmares but I'll see you in my dreams
I might live a thousand years before I know what that means
Once there was a friend of mine who died a thousand deaths
His life was full of parasites and countless idle threats
He trusted in a woman and on her he made his bets
Once there was a friend of mine who died a thousand
If I can hold on to just one thought for long enough to know
Why my mind is moving so fast and the conversation is slow
Burn off all the fog and let the sun through to the snow
Let me see your face again before I have to go
