I watched the clock drift half past three
And waited for you patiently
Your call it came with half-surprise
And left as soon with your goodbyes
I hardly have the time you said
Its late where you are so get to bed
I wont be sleeping tonight
As long as youre awake

Ill wait for the winter to come
And maybe by then youll be done
Wasting your time on someone
Who doesnt care half as much as I do now

I watched the clock drift half past four
And walked my worries to the door
When what I thought was meant to be
Came down on me I said

Ill wait for the winter to come
And maybe by then youll be done
Wasting your time on someone
Who doesnt care half as much as I do now

I sat alone until my eyes shut
Alone I woke to California sun
Excuse the way that I care too much
But all my hope is running out of luck
