Finite

[Verse 1]
You're gonna catch a cold in the rain, I can't explain
With every movement, every step nearer, it breaks
So I watch you get into your car
This street and the next street's not far enough
So I can be safe
And only when I look at you in the rearview
Receding, still bleeding for perspective
Yet you'll be something much smaller

[Chorus]
Can I call it most trivial?
Can I put it down to a lesson learned?
Put it down to experience?
Still it took me too long
And it took me not long enough

[Verse 2]
Now and again I might still prеtend it ended as it startеd
I'm startled and awake
See the poultry, see the rake
We may shiver and desire shake
You keep taking advantage
See the bruises, see the bandage
I'll manage with the aching
I won't call you

[Chorus]
But can I call it most trivial?
Can I put it down to a lesson learned?
Put it down to experience?

[Refrain]
Still it took me too long
And it took me not long
It took me too long
And it took me not long
It took me too long
And it took me not long
It took me too long
And it took me not, not, not long enough
