Verse 1:
You and I, we want to live like fiction/ and never have to worry about compromise/
We used to have ideals, that were real, and now they have been broken/ just something that is spoken of once in a while/
Pre-chorus:
Love and strategy should never share a sentence because a sentence is all that becomes/ and I can’t stand by/ I can’t stand by/ I can’t stand by/ I can’t stand it all (because)/
Chorus:
I thought that all I’d ever need is my resolve/ Have patience and the grey it will dissolve/ Bring winter all the colours of the fall/
Verse 2:
We look the other way, so we can say that this is what we wanted/ and not be haunted by the dreams of when we were naïve/
Pre-chorus.
Extended chorus:
I thought that all I’d ever need is my resolve/ Have patience and the grey it will dissolve/ Bring winter all the colours of the fall/
And every time the seasons change I hear you say/ that you’re willing to throw it all away/ If it gets you through another day/ Nothing works out like we plan it anyway/
