lyrics

With all the time and no view
Nothing to write home about
All this time I’ve got you
Where is home really?
I ask you sincerely

I want you to know
As big as you grow
There’s a man in a little hole
Working for you
With all the time and no view
What better thing to do?

20,000 matchsticks
It took 20,000 matchsticks
This frame for your face
20,000 matchsticks
It took 20,000 matchsticks
You made this fool
A hopeless romantic
Fantastic

I don’t expect
We’ll ever meet
I’ve got so much time
Staring back at me
But I just have to believe
That you’ll sing a song for me
Some day, a song for me

I’ve got to know
I’ve got to hope
There’s a girl in the big ol’ world
Singing for me
With all the time and no view
What better thing to do?

20,000 matchsticks
It took 20,000 matchsticks
This frame for your face
It took 20,000 matchsticks
20,000 matchsticks
You made this fool
A hopeless romantic
Fantastic
