You were tired of living
The solitary way it ended up
Watchin' your whole life become
Love on the run
How much time are we given
To find someone and tear them all apart?
Carving our names in the bark
What have we done?
Ooh, just a loving song, a love I'm so afraid of
Like I'm in danger
When there ain't nobody else
Put my heart back on the shelf, turn into light
Took in all I was given
Erased it all to fake a work of art
Nothing to show for it all
Did I do my part?
Don't they say so?
Try not to say goodbye
If you wanna, if you wanna
Leaving it all behind
If you wanna, if you wanna
Why don't you tell me lies
Don't you wanna, don't you wanna
Won't you begin to try?
Ooh, just a loving song, a love I'm so afraid of
Like I'm in danger
When there ain't nobody else
Put my heart back on the shelf, turn into light
Our lies, like anybody else
All the countless turns we've taken for ourselves
And though we walk alone (alone)
The sun will shine again
The sun will shine again for us
