lyrics

And it’s all ok
Even if we’re falling apart
Cause we both know, how this thing goes
It's not to say
That it won’t end with two broken hearts

Cause it’s the same song and dance
Dusty record keeps spinning round and
Stuck on this track again
And we know every word

Chorus
This was never love
No No No
We were only buying time
Time Time Time(x2)

Weeks or days
We don’t talk but we never mind
Cause we both know
There’s a late night show
Or a matinee
It could be at your place or mine

Cause it’s the same song and dance
Dusty record keeps spinning round and
Stuck on this track again
And we know every word

Chorus
This was never love
No No No
We were only buying time
Time Time Time(x2)
