we've been holding on
for far too long
it was all there
but now it's gone

it's empty, and so are we
there's no need to bring it on down.

there comes a day
to break away
but it would be
so nice to stay
if only
we could fill it up
but are our cups just big enough? [just bigger now?]

we could try it out
anyway
just to feel
the love we saved

I've got time
and i promise you my mind
this time I'll let you on in

We've been holding on
for far too long
it was all there
but now it's gone

    never found lyrics anywhere else that were complete to this song... they usually missed the fourth and fifth verses... anybody who knows what the unintelligible parts are, please report it, as i'd like to know what they are myself... this was written down as i listened to the song as i couldn't find ANY lyrics site with the correct lyrics i mean... supposedly the unintelligible phrase is "but are our big enough"... that doesn't satisfy me as to correct lyrics, especially when listening to the song as for what it means? well, i think it's about two people who know that they no longer feel for each other but they want to hold on just to feel like it's like it used to be.

    I think the line with the "intelligible word" is the love we saved Makes sense anyway.

    Oh...and I think the phrase is "are our cups big enough". It seems to relate to the line before it "we could fill it up"
