Lyrics
She stops the flow of time, her melody falls behind,
And she's soft as a lullabye;
While I was on the fly and never thought that I'd get high,
And be stoned from the kiss goodbye.
Chorus:
If you'd have seen me Saturday, you'd have seen me fallen.
I'm not acting on a whim, I'm taken from within.
But if you'd seen me Saturday, you'd have seen me on my way,
Cause there ain't no long goodbyes.
She talks a frozen tongue and she'd be flirting with the sun,
But I'd know that I'm her number one.
But she can ostracize, her brand of therapy for the wise,
Cause she knows where the border lies.
Chorus:
If you'd have seen me Saturday, you'd have seen me fallen.
I was dancing on a limb until my weight kicked in.
But if you'd seen me Saturday, when I was lost at bay,
Well, there ain't no long goodbyes.
It takes a lot of you to know that every season's gotta go,
And every dream is up at dawn even when you've got it going on.
And time goes on...
Chorus:
But if you'd seen me Saturday, after she had gone her way,
There ain't no long goodbyes.
Oh, there ain't no compromise.
I was walking on a line, I tripped a sudden mine.
But if you'd seen me Saturday, I threw it all away,
Cause there ain't no long goodbyes.
