The Dream
I can't wrap my head around,
Why we couldn't work it out,
How come everybody else can?
Well I ain't him, you ain't her, I just seem to make it worse and nothing's gonna change on end.
It's not fair to you. So true, but what can I do? I don't wanna go my whole life, losing the same fight, how come we're always on this road?
I can't even look you in the eyes,
They used to lock with mine, once upon a time.
No matter how hard I try,
I'm never gonna change your mind.
Well I could live without your love but I just,
Don't wanna.
And I know that I'm the one you can rely on,
If you just let me show ya.
It used to be love, used to be the dream now it's keeping me up, what happened to us?
Now I don't wanna let you slip away,
But I'm runnin' out of ways to make you stay.
Let's not make this all my fault,
Point at me, you're one to talk,
I ain't tryna go there right now.
You're tellin' me there's nothin' left,
You won't stop to catch your breath,
What's it gonna take to slow you down?
She said:
I knew this wouldn't be easy,
But how many times you gonna leave me?
Without thinkin' I'd be movin' on,
soon as someone came along,
You must be crazy.
I can't even look you in the eyes,
They used to lock with mine, once upon a time.
No matter how hard I try,
I'm never gonna change your mind.
Well I could live without your love but I just,
Don't wanna.
And I know that I'm the one you can rely on,
If you just let me show ya.
It used to be love, used to be the dream now it's keeping me up, what happened to us?
Now I don't wanna let you slip away,
But I'm runnin' out of ways to make you stay.
A thousand times, I've apologized,
But it seems that you have already made up your mind.
Forever did we try and we try,
and now you're gonna end it with "goodbye"?
Well I could live without your love but I just,
Don't wanna.
And I know that I'm the one you can rely on,
If you just let me show ya.
It used to be love, used to be the dream now it's keeping me up, what happened to us?
Used to be the reason you would breathe,
Now you can't look at me without
Wishin' you were somewhere else.
And I don't wanna let you slip away,
But I'm runnin' out of ways to make you stay.
