don't wait up
I'm out looking for a sign
or possibly a kiss for luck tonight
got to sneak around
try to figure out
is this the way to compromise

some things we said a thousand times
and I don't have all the answers
but I'll still pretend that I do
as my heart begins to flat line
and I'm trying to hold on
I'm contemplating letting go

oh, I'm running out
I'm running out of time
who pays the price of commitment
I'm hoping that you'll give me this
I'm hoping that you'll give me this

I could go out
dressed to kill tonight
grab myself a drink and see if something better comes my way
try to understand
you're not the only dream
I guess it's better that way

I'm not ready to apologize
but there's still something in you
I've hurt you, I'm sorry
as my heart begins to flat line
and I'm trying to hold on
I'm contemplating letting go

oh, I'm running out
I'm running out of time
who pays the price of commitment
I'm hoping that you'll give me this
I'm hoping that you'll give me this
