"Until Then" lyrics

Can't wrap my arms around the pictures in my head
I've still got a ways to go
I'm always gone so we talk on the phone
When I hang up, me and my hang-ups are alone

Until then I'll pretend
Until then I promised you I wouldn't bend
Until then I'll spend my time
Waiting until then

And how about you, can you promise me you'll wait?
We've still got a ways to go
Temptation rules the earth and I'm no perfect saint
My insecurities and love will have to wait

Until then I'll pretend
Until then I promised you I wouldn't bend
Until then I'll spend my time
Waiting until then

We're not the first to try
We're not the last to fail
But I know we can succeed
We've got to hold it up or it will fall

Until then I'll pretend
Until then I promised you I wouldn't bend
Until then I'll spend my time
Waiting until then...
