lyrics
I knew that I’d fell when the single thing I wanted
Was just to just do the simple things with her
No expectation, just two people being honest
A give and take that was innocent and pure
Had it only been the same with you
Had I felt the way you wanted me to I’d never have faltered
You know I would have stayed
Late night, hands tight, small liberties were taken
Amongst the chaos you were still and so was I
Till your heart beat crescendoed and my confidence was shaken
Chemical compatibility personified
Had we only said what was on our minds
Hiding in the faith that was really denial we’d never have faltered
Had it only been the same with you
Had I felt the way you wanted me to I’d never have faltered
Let’s find a way to tiptoe back into the friendship we’d forgotten
When we tried too hard to force what wasn’t right
Side by side
Side by side
Was just to just do the simple things with her
No expectation, just two people being honest
A give and take that was innocent and pure
Had it only been the same with you
Had I felt the way you wanted me to I’d never have faltered
You know I would have stayed
Late night, hands tight, small liberties were taken
Amongst the chaos you were still and so was I
Till your heart beat crescendoed and my confidence was shaken
Chemical compatibility personified
Had we only said what was on our minds
Hiding in the faith that was really denial we’d never have faltered
Had it only been the same with you
Had I felt the way you wanted me to I’d never have faltered
Let’s find a way to tiptoe back into the friendship we’d forgotten
When we tried too hard to force what wasn’t right
Side by side
Side by side
