We talked on the phone it's as it's always been Say you wanna see me on my birthday and I'm teary again You wanna take a road trip in an electric van When you're not studying, will I be far away then? Oh, it sounds like fun oh it sounds like fun Pity it came undone because it sounds like fun I say I'm fragile today, can't cope with social events Seem to get so upset about the littlest things So overcome by it all, lose sense of space and time I know I didn't reply, but you were on my mind Oh, what a shame it all didn't go to plan We had wild dreams of a future And we thought and we prayed To anyone that might hear And if we crossed our fingers it might just appear And we'd wake up one bright day and see We'd had our wishes granted More than three How didn't we see We couldn't withstand gravity We all believed in a dream where she was alive and well No one told us she was falling down then one day she fell Couldn't tell nobody in this whole damn world Now we're drunk on the floor watching it all unfurl Oh, what a shame it all didn't go to plan We had wild dreams of a future And we thought and we prayed To anyone that might hear And if we crossed our fingers it might just appear And we'd wake up one bright day and see We'd had our wishes granted More than three How didn't we see We couldn't withstand gravity Like a nightmare they said, it'd be over at the end of the night It was just a matter of time And if we said it enough, we could join all the stars in a line With enough hope it'd all be alright Oh, what a shame it all didn't go to plan We had wild dreams of a future And we thought and we prayed To anyone that might hear And if we crossed our fingers it might just appear And we'd wake up one bright day and see We'd had our wishes granted More than three How didn't we see We couldn't withstand gravity
