you spoke your mind tonight
one at a time the words came raging in
your hopes declined again
last straw, said it before, no more try again
how long can you stall?
how long can you stall?
quick fix, no change at all
back down, try to relax, but you're wide awake
this dream needs time to take
but I don't have the spine for a big mistake
how long can you stall?
how long can you stall?
when you were mine you were so shy
that you would hide at your boyfriend's place
but now your fame makes me to blame
for all of the years that we stayed in place
how long can you stall?
how long can you stall?
