|
Every time we speak, our words betray intentions |
|
Insincere inventions that never quite reach the heart |
|
So we turn the other cheek and gather our defenses |
|
Again rebuild the fences that just been keeping us apart |
|
Waiting out the worst, we keep the best inside us |
|
In hopes our hearts can hide us, in hopes our tears don't show |
|
And you know we're not the first to try and breach the distance |
|
And though we meet resistance the love between us grows |
|
(Chorus) |
|
And in the time it takes us to look beyond the lies |
|
We could be sailing through each other's eyes |
|
And in those stolen moments when love is caught off guard |
|
We see it never had to be this hard |
|
(Repeat First Verse And Chorus) |
