you spoke your mind tonight
one at a time the words came raging in

your hopes declined again
last straw, said it before, no more try again

how long can you stall?
how long can you stall?

quick fix, no change at all
back down, try to relax, but you're wide awake

this dream needs time to take
but I don't have the spine for a big mistake

how long can you stall?
how long can you stall?

when you were mine you were so shy
that you would hide at your boyfriend's place

but now your fame makes me to blame
for all of the years that we stayed in place

how long can you stall?
how long can you stall?
