[Verse 1]
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

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

[Verse 2]
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

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

[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
Until then, I'll pretend
Until then, I promised you I wouldn't bend
Until then, I'll spend my time
Waiting until then
Waiting until then
Waiting until then
