Bright eyes, looking down on my face
Waking up, can't waste the whole day
She knows my plans, like a head brigade
I could never take less, I'd be a hand grenade
These are times, I take in stride
It's never what it seems
These are times she makes me find
A way to see through dreams
The bonds we trade
The rings we take mean more
It's a long drive
Looking past myself
Cause someone else means more
In the whole fight
The bonds we trade
The rings we take mean more
It's a long drive
Looking past myself
Cause someone else means more
In the whole fight
This love and life are a tug of war
Burning hands, gripping the rope
A dramatic take, breathing the smoke
Playing these parts, guided by roles
But this ain't a film, we never know what unfolds
These are times, I take in stride
It's never what it seems
These are times she makes me find
A way to see through dreams
The bonds we trade
The rings we take mean more
It's a long drive
Looking past myself
Cause someone else means more
In the whole fight
The bonds we trade
The rings we take mean more
It's a long drive
Looking past myself
Cause someone else means more
In the whole fight
Bonds we trade
Rings we take mean more...
Ooh, a tug of war
Ooh, oh
The bonds we trade
The rings we take mean more
It's a long drive
Looking past myself
Cause someone else means more
In the whole fight
Oh, oh, ooh, oh
