lyrics
Some day I will pay for my own wine
But until then, what is yours is mine
And I know you’d never dream of keeping score
And that you’re well aware, what is mine is yours
But I only wish it was a whole lot more
But I don’t want to be the stone around your neck
I don’t want to be the years that you regret
I don’t want to be sunlight in your eyes
That blinds you every time you’re throwing knives
Some day I will hold you in my hands
But for a while more, you will have to stand
Some day I will fill up your belly
But for a while more, we won’t go hungry
But I don’t want to be the stone around your neck
I don’t want to be the years that you regret
I don’t want to be sunlight in your eyes
That blinds you every time you’re throwing knives
But until then, what is yours is mine
And I know you’d never dream of keeping score
And that you’re well aware, what is mine is yours
But I only wish it was a whole lot more
But I don’t want to be the stone around your neck
I don’t want to be the years that you regret
I don’t want to be sunlight in your eyes
That blinds you every time you’re throwing knives
Some day I will hold you in my hands
But for a while more, you will have to stand
Some day I will fill up your belly
But for a while more, we won’t go hungry
But I don’t want to be the stone around your neck
I don’t want to be the years that you regret
I don’t want to be sunlight in your eyes
That blinds you every time you’re throwing knives
