Three Weeks' Time

Three Weeks’ Time Looking back I guess I should've known Judging by your eyes and change of tone That part of you was part of history But now it's all becoming clear to me That ever since you made your way back home You act as if you'd rather be alone But the silence leaves me guessing in the dark It seems distance was the thief that got your heart And I don't know if I can bring it back 'cause it's looking like it's much too late for that So will we reach a compromise On these lies we've been hiding behind? 'Cause I give up trying to rationalize If three weeks' time is all it takes to change your mind So where's the girl you used to let me talk to? 'Cause lately it's been hard to get a word through And when I do, it's all the same to you You just shake it off, and tell me it's not true And I don't know if I can bring you back 'Cause it's looking like it's much too late for that Will you change it back again? Above it all you were my friend You were my friend Or is it lost forever? Maybe it's all for the better The better So is there anywhere to go from here? My vision's blocked by memories and fear And I've grown tired of playing this old part Even though I know my lines by heart
