Everything We've Got

(album: Girls Like You - 2014)

Just close your eyes for me
And see if we can see the same thing for once
Cuz it's been a long road
How did we end up right here?

Cuz we're just a fraction of what we used to be
Two hollow trees
Just blowing in the breeze
Two lovers who fell in love with different things

[Chorus:]
So we go out with our friends
But they all know that we're just pretending
And we're like a shooting star
That burned out and disappeared in the dark

It's crazy how the bitterness leaks into your heart
Drop after drop
They're small but they don't ever stop
Then one day you wake up and you realize

That the space between
The two sides of our bed has grown
And all of the silence is wearing on my soul
When I lay my head down
I might as well be sleeping alone

[Chorus]

Well it's a miracle we ever made it this far
Sometimes lovers turn to stone with these holes in their hearts
But I wanna hold you like I use to
Like we've never hurt before
Like we've got nothing to lose

But this will take everything we've got
Yeah this will take everything we've got

So let's fall in love again
No regrets and no pretending
Let's find a shooting star
Light the way and lead me back to your heart
