I made a choice that very night
To become a slightly better man
I started white-washing my hands of all those passings
And as you waited alone in your car outside
I politely, but quite firmly denied your invitation for the evening
So, hold out your weary hand
Let me tell your fortune again
Your future is brighter than you’ll ever know
Now that we are on our own
And there are things that you deserve to know
The rest you have to earn
I have no remorse
And as soon as I hung up the phone
I knew that this disaster was finally through
And I could hear through the cloudy line
That this took you by surprise
So, hold out your weary hand
Let me tell your fortune again
Your future is brighter than you’ll ever know
Now that we are on our own
And it’s true that I have no idea what the universe has in store
But I do know that when you think it can’t get any worse, it does
It does, it does
So, hold out your weary hand
Let me tell your fortune again
Your future is brighter than you’ll ever know
And now we are on our own
So, hold out your weary hand
Let me tell your fortune again
Your future is brighter than you’ll ever know
Now that we are on our own
Now that we are on our own
