Until Thursday Lyrics

Until Thursday
I thought time would stand stop and start
Just for you and me.
You would stare at me in slow motion
Until I saw the twilight in your eyes
And the purple mingled with the blue
Of your cheek
You said your bruises will heal but
You don't want to feel like this forever
The time it takes to let go; merely
An instant, broken glass a mosaic on the pavement
Reflecting light in shades of crimson
Stained glass window to your pain
And I stared at you in slow motion
Reminder of the setting sun
I understood; no reason for you to return
So I won't cry
Until Thursday.
