Verse 1:
         
You keep hanging on for more
                                             
building walls around the words around the world
       
i keep trippping over hints i keep spilling every secret
                             
without spilling any secrets at all


Chorus 1:
                            
don't you know? of course you don't
                                   -
of course you don't the words might choke
                                          
  how long is too long? when you're waiting by the phone


Verse 2:
        
did the issue go this far?
                                           
did you set this high a standard for yourself?
  
i know it's not our fault but i really have to wonder
                                    
if you'd ever set the standard without help


(Repeat Chorus 1 except last line)

                                          
  how long is too long? when you're waiting by the phone


Bridge:
                        
me up, you win, i must give in
                             
  to each their own with all their sins
         
you keep hanging on for more
                                                   
building walls around the the words around the world


Chorus 2:
                            
don't you know? of course you don't
                                   -
of course you don't the words might choke
                                              -
  This small town takes every ounce to build it's moan
                                          (hold)
  how long is too long? when you're waiting by the phone
                         (hold)
  When you're waiting by the phone
