Why can't you see those hands are cold and gray?

When her imperfections hide away

And in the half light you can barely see that face

Maybe it's better that way

As you fall into waiting arms

That loosen their embrace

Finding comfort in restriction

Eternally replace

Why don't you know what's going on here?

The same things happen every few years

As you fall into waiting arms

That loosen their embrace

Finding comfort in restriction

Eternally replace

Why can't you see those hands are cold and gray?

Their imperfections hide away

At times you realize you barely knew that name

Maybe it's better that way

As you fall into waiting arms

That loosen their embrace

Finding comfort in restriction

Eternally replace
