I would've been your winter coat
I could've kept you safe and warm
Instead, you left me here to hang
While you ran first into the storm
So send me postcards from miles away
I'll send you nothing in return
And when you get back home to nothing
You'll have nothing left to learn

In the time you were gone
You became more beautiful
(Became more beautiful)
But in the time I was gone
I became more cynical

You're sick of sleeping in on early mornings
You're tired of passing out too late at night
You had my voice as your warm reminder
I was your Daylight Savings Time

I was the clock up on your wall
The one you never had to set
The only thing that made your time
A little less than meaningless
But now my batteries are dead
And I'm not changing them for you
I'll find a better place to move my hands
I'll find the time for someone new

In the time you were gone
You became more beautiful
(Became more beautiful)
But in the time I was gone
I became more cynical

You're sick of sleeping in on early mornings
You're tired of passing out too late at night
You had my voice as your warm reminder
I was your Daylight Savings Time

You're sick of sleeping in on early mornings
You're tired of passing out late at night
You had my voice as your warm reminder
I was your Daylight Savings Time

Are you going back or forwards?

You're sick of sleeping in on early mornings
You're tired of passing out late at night
You had my voice as your warm reminder
I was your Daylight Savings Time

You're sick of sleeping in on early mornings
You're tired of passing out late at night
You had my voice as your warm reminder
I was your Daylight Savings Time

You're sick of sleeping in on early mornings
You're tired of passing out late at night
You had my voice as your warm reminder
I was your Daylight Savings Time

Are you going back or forwards?
Are you going back or forwards?
Oh yes, oh yes
Are you going back or forwards now?
