When we tried to rework all of this |
|
Each to her rendition |
|
We painted ourselves in a corner |
|
Lost for ideas blindly fishing |
|
For a compliment or kindness |
|
Just to bring us into view |
|
But you could not interpret me and I could not interpret you |
|
I remember that cold morning when the trees were black with birds |
|
I tried to make out some connection |
|
We were at a loss for words |
|
After all that we've been through |
|
I could not see giving up |
|
Despite the picture of our coffee growing colder in the cups |
|
I want to say that underneath it all you are my friend |
|
And the way that I fell for you I'll never fall that way again |
|
I still believe despite our differences that what we have's enough |
|
And I believe in you and I believe in love |
|
So we went rolling on down through the years |
|
Taking time off we could steal |
|
Until the thief of things unreconciled |
|
Stuck it's stick into the wheel |
|
Now we're tumbling in a freefall |
|
No one's gonna go unscathed |
|
But it's not because you held back and its not how I behaved |
|
I want to say that underneath it all you are my friend |
|
And the way that I fell for you I'll never fall that way again |
|
I still believe despite our differences that what we have's enough |
|
I believe in you and I believe in love |
|
There are avenues and supplements and books stacked on the shelf |
|
Labyrinths of recovery in search of our best self |
|
But most of what will happen now is way out of our hands |
|
So just let it go and see where it lands |
|
I want to say that underneath it all you are my friend |
|
And the way that I fell for you I'll never fall that way again |
|
I still believe despite our differences that what we have's enough |
|
I believe in you and I believe in love |
|
I believe in you and I believe in love |
