I made a choice that very night
To become a slightly better man
I started white-washing my hands of all those past things
And as you waited alone in your car outside
I politely but quite firmly declined
Your invitation for the evening

So hold out your weary hand
Let me tell your fortune again
Your future is brighter than you'll ever know
Now that we are on our own

And there are things that you deserve to know
The rest you have to earn
I have no remorse
And as soon as I hung up the phone I knew
That this disaster was finally through
And I could hear through the cloudy line
That this took you by surprise

So hold out your weary hand
Let me tell your fortune again
Your future is brighter than you'll ever know
Now that we are on our own

And it's true that I have no idea
What the universe has in store
But I do know that when you think it can't
Get any worse, it does
It does, it does

So hold out your weary hand
Let me tell your fortune again
Your future is brighter than you'll ever know
And now we are on our own

So hold out your weary hand
Let me tell your fortune again
Your future is brighter than you'll ever know
Now that we are on our own
Now that we are on our own
