Give and Not Take |
LyricsWe always seemed to get along so well, you'd never tell the dream was fadingWe always seem to hide away when things went wrong It happened slowly as we lived our lives the time went by we never noticed We covered everything away for far too long I don't know how it happened How we got this way Why do we yell Why do we fight Always the need to go and prove each other right Why don't we talk Communicate Let's dial it back and let's just try to take a break because in the end you'll still be my friend if we give and not take We're never going back to yesterday the times have changed and we're both different We couldn't ever be the same if we both tried But if we're ever gonna make it through then me and you will need to give in A little compromising now instead of pride We can make this happen We can find a way |
