I think I'm an emotional sellout
Smiling at you cause you said that it's what you deserve
I guess I'll get your love in return
It won't be long
Till the getting better 5pm is dark in November
17's gone and I can't kick this cold But the mornings are lighter
And I bought a lottery ticket It won't be long
Till the getting better
I'm waiting and it won't begin Oh let me in,
let me in
I used to think that love was a fire
Stayed underwater so I couldn't get burned
But I forgot how to swim And then the ship started sinking
It won't be long
Till the getting better
I see it's closing in Oh let me in
A couple more miles to your doorstep Could be pushing my luck again
Hoping you're home but your room's got a light on
And I bought a lottery ticket
It won't be long
Till I'm gonna win it
It won't be long
