I'm circling around the sun
Hoping for a chance to see
You above everyone
Rescue me from this heat
I'm waiting for night to fall
And it's been days

Are you sorry yet
That you took our one and final breath
When the flag was half-way down
Just look at me now

Oh, it's like a breeze blowing beneath my skin
Oh, won't you help me change the state I'm in
Oh, I can't stand myself since you've been gone
There's nothing there to lean upon
(What I'd give for a minute more)

I walk into a photograph
The waiter took so well
Oh, if I could only laugh
Like that girl did at some hotel
I call out to anyone
But not too loud

I'm not ready yet
To share the phone or TV set
It's a long long way to come
Out of this one

And now it seems so fatal
The last stone we left uncradled
And I ask you

Are you sorry yet
Are you sorry yet
Cause I may never come
Out of this one
