I sat on the roof as the night came down Looking out over this pitiful town And thought of you out there Back in the race Looking for someone to take my place That's when it hit me That's when the walls came down You see, I never thought it could happen to us Now we're going 'round Breaking down each other's hearts So go on and blame me for whatever you must But we've become just like the ones We laughed about This time, well this time it's us Up in a watchtower with the streetlights below In a town full of places that we used to go And a river of people walking two by two Everything I see now reminds me of you
That's when it hit me That's when it all came true 'Cause I never thought it could happen to us Now we're going 'round Breaking down each other's hearts So go on and blame me for whatever you must But we've become just like the ones We were laughing about This time, this time it's us, oh it's us I never thought it could happen to us Now we're going 'round Breaking down each other's hearts So go on and blame me for whatever you must But we've become just like the ones We were laughing about This time, this time it's us This time it's us, oh This time it's us
