Troubled Times

Artists : Fountains Of Wayne : Troubled Times

When you think you've found something worth holding onto
Were you reaching for attention, hoping she would notice you
Collecting bottles and thrown-away cans
Like she was returnable
One day would refill your hands
How she loved you, all you imagined
Fit so well into your plans
Maybe one day soon
It'll all come out
How you dreamed about each other sometimes
With a memory of
How you once gave up
But you made it through the troubled times
Pining away every hour in your room
Rolling with the motion, waiting till it's opportune
Sitting there watching time fly past you
Why do tomorrow
What you could never do
How she loved you
All you imagined
All the shit you put her through
Maybe one day soon
It'll all come out
How you dreamed about each other sometimes
With a memory of
How you once gave up
But you made it through the troubled times
And it takes alot of nerve to ask how she is doing
Start with a weak foundation, you will end in ruins
The way the days and hours pass you'll never understand
Falling like rain through your hands
Maybe one day soon
It'll all come out
How you dreamed about each other sometimes
With a memory of
How you once gave up
But you made it through the troubled times
