lyrics

All this wasted time
With the wishing eyes
I’d hope that you seem them
At the zoo gift show

I know it’s all free
But the lions look depressed
As they see my attempt
To win you back

Put me, put me
In a cage
Love me, loathe me
Everyday

That’s when I see you up ahead
We’re no longer hand in hand
And I watch our lock come loose
At the zoo

Another night spent
With the wishing eyes
Staring up at the ceiling
In the afterthoughts

Where I never waited too long
Never became that guy
Watching giraffes, all alone
With a tear in his eye

Maybe we just need a reminder
Of the first time
Looking at each other all sweetly
In the gift shop line

That’s when I see you up ahead
We’re no longer hand in hand
And I watch our lock come loose
At the zoo
And I feel lost and pathetic
With all this

Wasted time
With the wishing eyes I…
Hope that you seem them
Hope that you seem them
I, hope that you see them

But you never, you never do.
