Eventually

[Verse 1]
I plan, God laughs
Damn tears and photographs
This road never looked so long
Old hopes die hard
Buried in my backyard
These ghosts of love that didn't last
The future is the past

[Chorus]
'Cause eventually
The highest walls will tumble
Yeah, they'll crumble into sand
And eventually
The sand'll wash away
And leave a patch of barren land
Where a love's gonna grow
Yeah, I tell myself so
Though I'm battered, bruised and self-deceiving
I'll never stop believing
She'll want me eventually

[Verse 2]
I dream, God cries
We live so many lies
Beneath these pale rose-colored skies
Two hearts beat wild
I'm still so like a child
So many years and miles to go
And this is what I know

[Chorus]
That eventually
The highest walls will tumble
Yeah, they'll crumble into sand
And eventually
The sand'll wash away
And leave a patch of barren land
Where a love's gonna grow
Yeah, I tell myself so
Though I'm battered, bruised and self-deceiving
I'll never stop believing
She'll want me eventually

[Bridge]
Any minute now, she'll see, yeah

[Chorus]
That eventually
The highest walls will tumble
Yeah, they'll crumble into sand
And eventually
The sand'll wash away
And leave a patch of barren land
Where a love's gonna grow
Yeah, I tell myself so
Though I'm battered, bruised and self-deceiving
Tattered, torn, always believing
She'll want me eventually

[Outro]
Eventually
