lyrics

ANYWAY

you can be such a jerk sometimes
ya play poker like a cheat
your shoes are still in the cupboard
but you’re halfway down the street

oh, now tell me, how’d we get away with this so long?
in love, we breathe with our hearts
not with our lungs
in love, we speak with our hearts
not with our tongues
in love, all the things you wish you didn’t say
in love, all the things you do to make me crazy
why do we stay in love,
anyway?

i should get my tongue cut off
but the fire makes it fly
you say i come off heartless
which i’d be hard-pressed to deny

oh, now tell me, how’d we get away with this so long?
in love, we breathe with our hearts …
why do we stay in love,
anyway?

breathe, find the answer
is time spent a reason to stay?
one’s the past and one’s the future
why are we here
anyway?

oh, now tell me, how’d we get away with this so long?
in love, we breathe with our hearts …
