Baby, we are lying here
|
Pretending that we're both asleep
|
I can hear your broken heart
|
And every single breath you breathe
|
|
It's hard to find the words to say
|
When we both hurt like this
|
So I close my eyes and pray
|
Time will heal what we're bound to miss
|
|
No one can ever say
|
Why it goes this way
|
|
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
|
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
|
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
|
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
|
|
It seems for every one we win
|
There's another three we lose
|
We've waited for the answer here
|
Only just to leave confused
|
|
You know you're forever mine
|
And baby, I'm forever yours
|
I've waited in the darkest rooms
|
Ooh, waiting in the open door
|
|
No one can ever say
|
Why it goes this way
|
|
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
|
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
|
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
|
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
|
|
We've been so long wishing for things
|
We just keep forgetting that we
|
Got all we'll ever need in you and me, yeah, yeah
|
You and me, you and me, baby, yeah
|
|
Everything we have, anything we got
|
It was given babe, it was given, babe
|
There ain't a thing we need that heaven forgot
|
It was given babe, it was given, babe
|
|
Everything we have, anything we got
|
It was given babe, it was given, babe
|
Ain't a thing we need that heaven forgot
|
It was given babe, it was given, babe
|
|
Everything we have, anything we got
|
It was given babe, it was given, babe
|
There ain't a thing we need that heaven forgot
|
It was given babe, it was given, baby, yeah
|
