You go for a walk in the park
'Cause you don't need anything
The hand that you sometimes hold
Doesn't do anything
The face that you see in the door
Isn't standing there anymore
In a matter of time
It would slip from my mind
In and out of my life
You would slip from my mind
In a matter of time
The face that you saw in the door
Isn't looking at you anymore
The name that you call in its place
Isn't waiting for your embrace
The world that you love to behold
Cannot hold you
Anymore
In a matter of time
It would slip from my mind
In and out of my life
You would slip from my mind
In a matter of time
More, you want more
More, you want more
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me, more
'Cause you don't need anything
The hand that you sometimes hold
Doesn't do anything
The face that you see in the door
Isn't standing there anymore
In a matter of time
It would slip from my mind
In and out of my life
You would slip from my mind
In a matter of time
The face that you saw in the door
Isn't looking at you anymore
The name that you call in its place
Isn't waiting for your embrace
The world that you love to behold
Cannot hold you
Anymore
In a matter of time
It would slip from my mind
In and out of my life
You would slip from my mind
In a matter of time
More, you want more
More, you want more
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me
More, only time can run me
More, you want more, you tell me, more

I'm not sure about the last bit, maybe the other person changing their mind about ending the relationship but the idea of it not being able to penetrate the numbness..this song is so beautiful and true
As for "you want more"- it could be the person she is in a relationship with wants more from her but she is saying time is the only thing that possesses her.
More, you want more, you tell me
The face that you see in the door,
isn't standing there anymore
The third stanza may also start with "The" instead of "Your", but I'm not sure. I also can't tell if it's "The word that you learned to behold" or "The world..."
By the way I really like this song :)
The end makes me think the reason for break up is because its too controlling of a relationship (maybe even abusive) when she sing's "only time can run me" and "more, you want more."
