Until The Ribbon Breaks

I dreamt that I had lost you
I woke up with a tear
I think you left it on my pillowcase
The last time you were here
And we came from nowhere
We came from nothing
And we could go back there
If that's what it takes
But I made a promise
That I'd try to keep you
Until the ribbon breaks
Until the ribbon breaks

I wonder why I came home
More read letters on my door
Oh but you just came from nowhere
We've been sleepin' on the floor
I don't feel homesick anymore

So who am I to cheat time?
I've been trying to guess the ending
And you'll do just fine
So use me 'til I'm broken
Like your favorite old tape
We could just play out through the summer
Until the ribbon breaks
