While You Were Making Time

(album: For You To See The Stars - 2017)

The heart is a crazy thing to bet
But it felt as sure as any sure thing can get
Thought those blue eyes were staring into my soul
As they were only searching for a way to let go

When I was on fire
Why did you hold back
Why'd you let my heart give you everything I had
When did you know
You've given up
I sure would have liked to know that we weren't us
'Cause when you were making time
I was making love

And the lies they'll always come unraveled
Just like blacktop turns to gravel
My trouble feels cold to the summer it's betraying
So when you were letting go last night
Did you know weren't staying

When I was on fire
Why did you hold back
Why'd you let my heart give you everything I had
When did you know
You've given up
I sure would have liked to know that we weren't us
'Cause when you were making time
I was making love

When I was on fire
Why did you hold back
Why'd you let my heart give you everything I had
When did you know
You've given up
I sure would have liked to know that we weren't us
'Cause when you were making time
I was making love
I was making love
