Pernice Brothers - Waiting for the Universe lyrics

With a kiss that was heaven sent And a look of ambivalence Slouching off to find a brand new fascination Put a plate on the stereo Pine away for the Romeo Trying to smash your heart into a thousand summers Did it have to be as typical as a tragedy Yours, mine and our lives to compromise I can say that I knew you when You could shine like a diadem Shining on a better life, a better you Something you could turn into Did it have to be as typical as a tragedy Yours, mine and our lives to compromise If I was the only one If you were the last alive Would we sit there like the amateurs And watch our days go by Waiting for the universe to die If I was the only one If you were the last alive Would we sit there like the amateurs And watch our days go by Waiting for the universe to die
