We read each other's books 
We gave each other looks 
Like we couldn't trust ourselves 
And we knew it 
 
So tell me where you've been 
And I'll show you were you're going 
You can shout, you can scream 
Your way through it... 
 
Well time rushes an ahead - enough said 
That's just the way we blew it 
Time marches on ahead - one day you'll see it; 
Love is a fine blue line 
 
Time races on ahead - enough said 
That's just the way we blew it 
Time marches on ahead - one day you'll see it 
Love is the fine blue line 
Running through it 
 
C  F  G  x2
