No Guarantees Songtext
von David Vertesi

I feel it creeping in
The slightest impression
Your keynote confession was
Not quite as innocent
As you had suggested
And now I have questions left
Lonely and lingering
On what could′ve been

There are no guarantees
Sometimes it's all for nothing but the memories
Now we′re both refugees
Running from something
We never wanted to leave


Traced to its origin
Our war of attrition has kept us from living
It bound us beneath our skin
Wrapped with a ribbon
Soft yet sufficient
Never to second guess
Or hope for some recompense

There are no guarantees
Your love won't turn from passion into pleasantries
Or make a nightmare of your fantasies
'Til you′re running from someone
You never wanted to leave

When there is no in-between
You may both be better off as enemies
Or at least agreeing to disagree
We′re all running from something

There are no guarantees
Sometimes it's all for nothing but the memories
Now we′re both refugees
Running from something
We never wanted to leave

There are no guarantees
Your love won't turn from passion into pleasantries
Or make a nightmare of your fantasies


′Til you're running from something
′Til you're running from someone
You never wanted to leave
