Fountains Of Wayne - Troubled Time Lyrics

When you think you've found something worth holding on to
But you're reaching for attention
Hoping she would notice you
Collecting bottles and throwin' away cans
Like she was returnable
One day would refill your hands

How she loved you
All you imagined
Fit so well into your plans

Maybe one day soon
It'll all come out
How you dream about each other sometimes
With the memory of
How you once gave up
But you made it through the troubled times

I lie awake every hour in your room
Rollin' with emotion
Waitin' 'til it's opportune
Sittin there watching time fly past you
Why do tomorrow
What you could never do

How she loved you
All you imagine
All the shit you put her through

Baby one day soon
It'll all come out
How you dream about each other sometimes
With the memory of
How you once gave up
But you made it through the troubled times

It takes a lot of nerve
To ask how she is doin'
Start living weak foundation
You were indinuance
The way the days and hours pass
You never understand
Fallin' like rain through your hands

Maybe one day soon
It'll all come out
How you dream about each other sometimes
With a memory of
How you once gave up
But you made it through the troubled times

One day soon
It'll all come out
How you dream about each other sometimes
With the memory of
How you once gave up
But you made it through the troubled times
