I live at the end Of a 5 & 1/2 minute hallway But as far as I can see You are still miles from me in your doorway
And oh, by the way when the landlord came today He measured everything I knew he'd get it wrong But I just played along 'Cause I was hoping that would fix it all
But there's only so far I can go When you're living in a hallway that keeps growing I think to myself Five more minutes and I'll be there
Inside your door but there's more to this story Than I have exposed There are words made of letters Unwritten and yes, I forgive you for leading me on
You can think of it like this when you can't resist I'm in your hallway standing on a cliff And just when I think I find the trick I'm tumbling like an echo
'Cause there's only so far I can go When you're living in a hallway that keeps growing I think to myself Thirty seconds and I'll be there
You never listen to me We cannot really experiment with love As freely as we think It is really a much more complicated topic
