In distant lands
|
There's no such luxury
|
You'd give your hand
|
In pre-arranged matrimony
|
You'd wear the veil
|
I'd sit in some cafe somewhere
|
Instead of this running around
|
And this right to be free
|
So pleased with ourselves but there's one thing I've found
|
about you and me
|
We can't live together
|
But we can't stay apart
|
|
In all my dreams
|
I've wanted someone like you
|
With no extremes
|
We'd both do what we have to do
|
But it's too easy, and then it's too hard
|
And passion gives us away
|
We know when to play the right cards
|
But we never know what to say
|
And we can't live together
|
But we can't stay apart
|
|
Why can't you be more like me
|
Or me like you
|
And why can't one and one
|
Just add to two
|
|
But we can't live together
|
And we can't stay apart
|
|

We Can't Live Together
