You can only push someone so far

You can only break so many hearts

It used to be love on another

Now it's lust for your lover

Baby, I was trying to burn bridges of stone



You can only wait

You can only wait so long

You can only wait, you can only wait so long

In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong

And you can only wait so long



Here's to the memories of yesterday

Here's to the poetry of those things I couldn't even say

You can only wait so long before the petals are all gone

Baby, I was trying to burn bridges of stone

Ain't nobody cryin' for what used to be home



You can only wait

You can only wait so long

You can only wait, you can only wait so long

In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong

And you can only wait so long



Why couldn't you hold on to me

I was layin' right here in our bed

Walked in on the things I didn't see

And all those things I never should have known

You can only push someone so far

You can only break so many hearts

You can only wait so long before the flower petals are all gone

Bbay, I was trying to burn bridges of stone



You can only wait

You can only wait so long

You can only wait, you can only wait so long

In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong

And you can only wait so long



Why couldn't you call out for me

It's not like I was ever far away

Tie me to the edge as I could leap

There's nothing left but a million words to say

We have memories and we shared most everything

Here's to the enemies who lay in misery

We'll find a way somehow

We're running just to know goodbye

Baby, I was trying to burn bridges of stone

Ain't nobody cryin' for what used to be home



You can only wait

You can only wait so long

You can only wait, you can only wait so long

In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong

And you can only wait so long



In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong, you can only wait so long

In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong, you can only wait so long

In this game we play, can't tell right from wrong, you can only wait so long
