and the worst of it all
i still believe in you
and these nightmares
we’ve kept
in the heat of it all
i made an enemy
put our demons
to rest
so i’ll
swallow my pride, and
fall in line, and
you could just say that
“everything’s fine”
but we both know
that’s not enough
so i’ll promise you i’ll be the best thing for us
then i’ll fight with your friends
and i’ll trash your apartment
i’ll lie to you, screaming i’d die for you
knowing how hard it’ll be
to get back where we started
in paris you asked me
if i was afraid
that we’d fall out of love
would that be okay?

and in spite of it all
you’re still my everything
when we’re nothing at all
come to think of it all
you are the centerpiece
around which i revolve
so i'll bury the hurt
and wait my turn
and we can pretend
that people unlearn
when we both know
it’s not enough
so i’ll promise you i’ll be the best thing for us
then i’ll fight with your friends
and i’ll trash your apartment
i’ll lie to you, screaming i’d die for you
knowing how hard it’ll be
to get back where we started
in paris you asked me
if i was afraid
that we’d fall out of love
would that be okay?
