Colbie Caillat - Buying Time

When do you say goodbye
To something that meant so much?
How long do lovers try
'Til they give in and just give up?
I don't wanna be first
But I know what we need to say
It's right on the tip of our tongues
'Til we kiss it way

We know it's in the cards
Something's gonna break
The letting go gets harder, babe
The longer that we wait
I wish love could be enough
To keep living alive
But let's not talk about it now
If only for tonight
It don't matter what it costs
Let's keep buying time
Buying time

Pour us a little wine
Leave all the lights down low
Let's hold on a little longer
Like we don't know

But we know it's in the cards
Something's gonna break
The letting go gets harder, babe
The longer that we wait
I wish love could be enough
To keep living alive
But let's not talk about it now
If only for tonight
It don't matter what it costs
Let's keep buying time

Take me by the hand
Let's slow it down with this slow dance
Hold on, long as we can

But we know it's in the cards
Something's gonna break
The letting go gets harder, babe
The longer that we wait
I wish love could be enough
To keep living alive
But let's not talk about it now
If only for tonight
It don't matter what it costs
Let's keep buying time
Buying time

Buying time
Let's keep buying time
