I tried to paint you a picture
|
The colors were all wrong
|
Black & white didn’t fit you
|
& all along
|
You were shaded with patience
|
Your strokes of everything
|
That I need just to make it
|
But I can see that
|
|
Lord knows I’ve failed you
|
Time & again,
|
But you & me we’re all right
|
|
We won’t say our goodbyes
|
You know it’s better that way
|
We won’t break, we won’t die
|
It's just a moment of change
|
All we are, all we are
|
Is everything that’s right
|
All we need, all we need
|
A lover’s alibi
|
|
I walked a minute in your shoes
|
They never would’ve fit
|
I figured there’s nothing to lose
|
I need to get
|
Some perspective on these words
|
Before I write them down
|
You’re an island & my ship
|
Has run aground
|
|
Lord knows I’ve failed you
|
Time & again,
|
But you & me we’re all right
|
|
We won’t say our goodbyes
|
You know it’s better that way
|
We won’t break, we won’t die
|
It's just a moment of change
|
All we are, all we are
|
Is everything that’s right
|
All we need, all we need
|
A lover’s alibi
|
|
Every single day that I can breathe
|
You changed my philosophy
|
I’m never gonna let you pass me by
|
|
So don’t say your goodbyes
|
You know it’s better that way
|
We won’t break, we won’t die
|
It’s just a moment of change
|
|
So don’t say your goodbyes
|
You know it’s better that way
|
We won’t break, we won’t die
|
It’s just a moment of change
|
All we are, all we are,
|
Is everything that’s right
|
All we need, all we need,
|
A lover’s alibi
|
|
So don’t say our goodbyes
|
You know it’s better
|
We won’t break, we won’t die
