One Hour Later - Lyrics by Melissa Etheridge


Lyrics
It was cold so cold
And one hour later the window was closed
And the talk all of the talk was gone
It was late so late
And one hour later we unlocked the gate
And the wine all of the wine was gone

And it would not matter if I knew you for only a day
And it would not matter if I did not know even your name
One hour later it would be the same
One hour later it would be the same
One hour later it would be the same
One hour later

It was blue, silver and blue
And one hour later the TV was through
And the tones all of the tones were high
And we tried oh we tried
And one hour later we rested our eyes
And the smoke all of the smoke was high

And it would not matter if I knew you for only a day
And it would not matter if I did not know even your name
One hour later it would be the same
One hour later it would be the same
One hour later it would be the same
One hour later

Now its bright so bright
And one hour later I think that I might
Try and open my eyes again

Then you move slowly you move
And one hour later I wonder if you
Will try and open your eyes again

And it will not matter if you have better things today
And it will not matter if you feel like you're wanting to stay
One hour later, one hour later, one hour later it will be the same
One hour later it will be the same
One hour later it will be the same
One hour later it will be the same
One hour later
