A Guardian In A Passerby Lyrics & Chords By Light This City

Time likes to flirt with me
He knows I'm watching as he passes
He is merciless with my lust
He won't give me the satisfaction of glancing back my way
I can't seem to get enough of the way he tastes
It's like I'm always watching him
Watching him walk away
It's true Time will never stop for me
And he might not even be there when I need him at the end
But I will stand by this man until he gives up on me
Don't give up on me
I reach for him and he pushes away
It seems just when I feel him in my hands he's tempted to release
Please hold onto me
When he is not always so cautious
I can see he cares
Sometimes he visits on long nights when I'm lonely
He might be inconsistent
But at least he's faithful
I know he'll always be back
In the meantime I can handle this whirlwind life
It's true time will never stop for me
And he might not even be there when I need him at the end
But I will stand by this man until he gives up on me
Don't give up on me
I reach for him and he pushes away
It seems just when I feel him in my hands he's tempted to release
Please hold onto me
He leaves a note when he sneaks away
In the middle of the night
It's these mornings I wish he would protect me from the world
There is no greater strength than time
Well he can't be bothered when he's busy
He's gone more often lately and for longer
I have always wanted the unattainable
But it's not like me to depend so on a man
