We saw a drawing of pillows
And it was a beautiful drawing, I know
But do you remember the paintings
Of all of the animals with St. Jerome?
And we spent the day on the roof of a building
Until it was time to go home
The day was so heavy and grey that it felt like
Somebody had dipped it in chrome
Feeling resigned, checking your watch 'cause
You're wasting your time, you're wasting my time
The world ain't just a scene of a crime
Time is just dust gathered into a line
Somebody passed us and stopped us to ask us
One reason we thought it should last
On the tip of my tongue, I thought I had the answer
But the moment had passed, so we laughed
Next thing we knew, it had gone by so fast
That the sun set at barely half-mast
Sometimes it takes the late afternoon light
To make water shimmer like glass
Feeling resigned, checking your watch 'cause
You're wasting your time, you're wasting my time
The world ain't just a scene of a crime
Time is just dust gathered into a line
Feeling resigned, checking your watch 'cause
You're wasting your time, you're wasting my time
The world ain't just a scene of a crime
Time is just dust gathered into a line
(Gathered into a line)
(Gathered into a line)
Don't waste my time
(Gathered into a line)
