Dan Wilson - The Rules Lyrics




Standing at the gate with the wrong passcode
I guess this is the end
Promises we made when we were close
I was blessed to be your friend

The more I dream, the less you show
The more I breathe, the less I know
I try to get the feeling back
But all the colors have turned black

I know the rules
Once they're gone, those days don't return again
But I can't help wishing they'd come back
I know the rules
Once you're gone, I won't see you again
But I can't help wishing you'd come back
I can't help wishing you'd come back

Brick turns to rubble, then the rubble is dust
Time will always win
We were the exception, or so we thought
And we would never end
The more I breathe, the less I know
The more I dream, the less you show

I know the rules
Once they're gone, those days don't return again
But I can't help wishing they'd come back
I know the rules
Once you're gone, I won't see you again
But I can't help wishing you'd come back
I can't help wishing you'd come back

You were always good to me
Easy now to look back and see
That's just the way it goes
That's just the way

I try to get the feeling back
But all the colors have turned black

I know the rules
Once they're gone, those days don't return again
But I can't help wishing they'd come back
I know the rules
Once you're gone, I won't see you again
But I can't help wishing you'd come back
I can't help
I know the rules
Once you're gone, I won't see you again
But I can't help wishing you'd come back
I can't help wishing you'd come back

Standing at the gate with the wrong passcode

But I can't help wishing you'd come back
I can't help
I know the rules
Once you're gone, I won't see you again
But I can't help wishing you'd come back
I can't help wishing you'd come back
