I’m running out, like quiet from sunrise
I’m running out, sweet sounds keep on
Fate and tragedy
I’m calling you selfish begging men, sweet sounds don’t leave

Because there’s a world I’ve got to see
And it silently waits for me, sweet sounds don’t leave
Chance is in her glass house I know
And I know I’m throwing stones
But it’s not enough to break love’s law

Now hold your breath and hold your heart
A boy like you should know this part
(And what sweet sounds bring) you’ve played it
Boy, you gave me life, but I’ll have my time (when trumpets sing for me)

Boy, you gave me life, but it wasn’t minе
I’m running out, like quiet from sunrise
I’m running out, sweet sounds keep on
Trading thе highest love for a case of lockjaw
Five years gone but not for good, please believe

I guess we’ve both held our breath so long
We’ve forgotten how to dream
We both knew this world would drop if we but breathed
Boy, you gave me life, but I’ll have my time
(When trumpets sing for me)
Boy, you gave me life, but it wasn’t mine
