Lamentations by American Trappist

Till I convince myself that you're on my side
Till I can't keep track when I'm looking back
It's gonna hurt sometimes
But that's loving baby
I only mean one thing when I wear that ring

It's an endless pool
And the water is cool
You know I had my doubts
But now I can't get out
I want to promise you
But it would never come true
I'll stop changing when
Then I'll change again

Every moment I tried to be a little more like
And I held her breath deep within my breast
It's gonna hurt sometimes
But that's living baby
I've only got one chance to bet our love against

It's an endless pool
And the water is cool
You know I had my doubts
But now I can't get out
I want to promise you
But it would never come true
I'll stop changing when
Then I'll change again

Till I convince myself that you're on my side
Till I can't keep steady waiting for you to be ready
It's gonna hurt sometimes
It's gonna take your time
It's gonna break your mind when it starts to unwind

It's an endless pool
And the water is cool
You know I had my doubts
But now I can't get out
I want to promise you
But it would never come true
I'll stop changing when
Then I'll change again

There's a pale light growing on a face that I've known
In the space between all my memories
And you hold me and say, "that's a promise, baby"
"You're like heaven to touch, and I love you so much"
