We look just fine your hand in mine,
But it’s slipping out from time to time,
We took the bet that you could forget,
But I guess we’ve been pot deep for a while,
I want to go back to making my own kind of luck,
Even if it’s bad,
And back over there, I bet nobody cares one little bit,
Which one of us is mad,
You’ve got nothing to hide,
So you can hold mine up,
I lied about something before,
So now you hold a grudge,
Taking my time, holding on to what’s mine,
I’ll sit around feeling nothing but fine,
Who would’ve thought, we’d only been taught falling in love,
Never how to keep it alive,
So nuance and need, over novelty and ease,
But sometimes lord I’m losing sleep,
And there was a time with time out of mind,
And back then you didn’t mind losing it with me,
You’ve got nothing to hide,
So you can hold mine up,
I lied about something before,
So now you hold a grudge,
Lighten up baby
We can both just go on hating my guts,
I don’t want to leave,
Just to come back to you ill at ease,
I don’t want to stay,
Just to sleep in a doubtful haze,
In time,
Do we all find our piece of mind?
Lighten up baby,
We can’t both just go on hating our time,
No, no,
Let it go.
