NOW OR NEVER

I watched the morning dawn upon your skin A splinter in the light It caught and frayed the very heart of us It's been hiding there inside for all this time How a sure thing winds up just like this Clockwork silence only knows And it's no one's fault There's no black & white Only you & me on this endless night And as the hours run away with another life Oh, darling can't you see It's now or never, it's now or never Sweeping eggshells still at 3 am We're trying far too hard The tattered thought balloons above our heads Sinking in the weight of all we need to say Whys and what ifs have since long played out Left us short on happy endings And it's no one's fault There's no black & white Only you & me on this endless night And as the hours run away with another life Oh, darling can't you see It's now or never, it's now or never Now or never, now or never… You know that there's so much more And it's no one's fault There's no black & white Only you & me on our final night And as the hours run away with another life Oh, darling can't you see It's now or never, it's now or never
