[00:00.51]Pity, take pity on me
[00:05.93]Because I'm not the man that I should be
[00:13.50]I'm always turning to run
[00:19.52]From the people I should not be afraid of
[00:26.33]
[00:30.79]And darling, you should know
[00:37.02]That I have fantasies about being alone
[00:43.69]It's like love is a lesson
[00:47.28]That I can't learn
[00:50.60]So I make the same mistakes at each familiar turn
[00:56.57]
[00:57.81]I know you can't hold out forever
[01:04.50]Waiting on a diamond and a tether
[01:10.74]From a boy who won't swim
[01:15.52]But who will dip his toe in
[01:18.85]Just to keep you here with him
[01:24.79]
[01:28.56]I've got this habit I abhor
[01:35.80]When we go out, I'm always watching the door
[01:45.57]As if there's someone I'm going to see
[01:52.53]Who could out-do the things that you do to me
[01:58.92]
[01:59.89]I know you can't hold out forever
[02:06.50]Waiting on a diamond and a tether
[02:13.50]From a boy who won't fly
[02:17.57]But who will take to the skies
[02:21.00]If he thinks you're about to say goodbye
[02:26.73]
[02:51.00]Pity, take pity on me
[02:57.73]Because I'm not half the man that I should be
[03:05.63]And I don't blame you, you've had enough
[03:11.62]With all these empty promises and countless bluffs
[03:18.65]
[03:19.55]I know you can't hold out forever
[03:25.78]Waiting on a diamond and a tether
[03:32.57]From a boy who won't jump
[03:36.69]When he falls in love
[03:40.58]He just stands with his toes on the edge
[03:47.52]And he waits for it to disappear again
[03:53.13]
