three years

three years i will wait for u
three years i will wait for u
three years i will wait for your return
that's one thousand ninety five days i will save
all written in my diary
all recorded in single space
every single ring i hear
every single dream i dream
i think you will descend from the sky
i think you will save my life
three years i will wait for u
three years i will play the fool

if you don't come in three year's time
i am giving up for good
i know better than to hope
i will let go of the woe
one hundred fifty six feet of rope
one hundred fifty six weeks to go

i will give up my favorite thing
i will walk miles in a ring
i will behave and not self-destruct
i will stay safe and remain tucked
three years i will do this right
three years i will watch the night
three years i will wait for u
three years i will play the fool
