Pernice Brothers - Waiting for the Universe lyrics

rate me

With a kiss that was heaven-sent

And a look of ambivalence

Slouching off to find a brand new fascination

Put a plate on the stereo

Pine away for the Romeo

Trying to smash your heart into a thousand summers

Did it have to be as typical as a tragedy

Yours, mine and our lives to compromise

I can say that I knew you when

You could shine like a diadem

Shining on a better life, a better you

Something you could turn into

Did it have to be as typical as a tragedy

Yours, mine and our lives to compromise

If I was the only one

If you were the last alive

Would we sit there like the amateurs

And watch our days go by

Waiting for the universe to die
