Letra de A matter of time

You´re looking for a way out, I can feel it
Come on, show me where it hurts, maybe I can heal it
Your feelings are your own, now you keep them under lock and key
You´ve got me driving through the streets for an answer to the mystery

The world´s still awake on Charleston Avenue
Outside that vacant starlight motel
I see you
Laughing with your girlfriends
Not a care in the world
Not a burden on your mind

It was a matter of time

There´s a panic in this house and it´s bound to surface
Just walking through the front door makes me nervous
It´s creeping up the floorboards, got me wondering where I stand
I cannot put out the fire, I´ve got a book of matches in my hand

When we first met, headstrong and filled with doubt
Made just enough, hustling tables, that summer to take you out
I was falling back on forever
When you told me about your heart
You laid it on the line

Laughing with your girlfriends
Not a care in the world
Not a burden on your mind
You´re hanging on the line!

It was just a matter
It was a matter of time

We´d find ourselves a place, we belong in this forever
Ain´t that what it´s all about?
Make the promise and keep it
Come hell or high water
We´d figure it out

It was the night, it was the moon
It was the green grass in the garden
The victory and the sin

I know you´re weary, look at me
Flailing in the corner
Here´s the towel
Go on, throw it in

It was a matter of time
Can´t you see that it´s tearing me up inside?
Look what´s laying at our feet
That´s the wreckage of broken dreams
And burned out halos
And it´s here on our street
