Hoping to hear your voice.
Staring at the sun and
I was dancing in the rain.
Yeah, I was just killing time
and it killed me right back.
In your arms I could always
breath and say the right thing.
Walking down your block
I could always hear you sing.
Now I find that I've been
dancing with a train.
But, I was just killing time
and it kills me right back.
I was never satisfied staying
here with you at my side.
I guess thats why we could
just never do the right things.
Baby I know it's dead and gone.
'Cause I was just killing time
and it's killing right back.

I agree with the other comments. It is a great write and it has a lyrical feel to it. It would make for a great song all you need is a melody. So sad and so good...Kie

Wow that's awesome! I love the feel of it, and the lines "I was just killing time and it killed me right back" - truly awesome stuff! Love it to bits.
