lyrics

Something about the cadence in which she spoke just let you know That in one way or other, you'd never be the same
Maybe it was the way she used your full name to ask you
If it might yet be the right time that never came
So you saw from across the room you noticed how
She leaned back with all her weight lookin' real good and
You thought this was someone you'd have to get to know soon
What happens now? What happens now? What happens now? What happens now?
There was a short time where you never slept alone,
And dreams were never needed 'cause you thought you'd found a home and You thought, "Well, maybe, just for tonight, I could change her mind."
She drew a picture with exactly the same story,
it's almost as though you'd never sorted out an ending
So here it goes again, after wasted waiting, tomorrow she will leave
What happens now? What happens now? What happens now? What happens now? What happens now? What happens now? What happens now? What happens now?
Like a blurry revelation, lines you'd never noticed in the sky
Witholding love in hesitation, like you'd run in fear without a pause to question why She laid out an invitation to your own imagination
A coloring book left open for everyone else's interpretation
You lived hazy days in paisley ways, recurring visions burning,
Empty pages filled so easily by all your wondrous yearning,
And you want to scream: "Change these days, lady,
We could all change our ways, baby!"
But she's gonna go anyway...
