Who We Were With

(album: Life In Real Time - 2015)

Oh we started out on our own.
We learned to love who we were with,
we tried to love who we were with,
yeah we set out trying to find a spark.
Two broken homes and a little dark,
searching through the dark,
but we still loved who we were with,
we still loved who we were with.
Sometimes we feel so scared and sick
that we just love who we are with.

We started drifting for some common ground,
and as the earth was spinning,
we could feel that someday we'd be found,
and we couldn't love who we were with,
no longer loved who we were with.
Sometimes we feel so scared and sick
that we just love who we are with.

And we can't ask and see it,
but your heart can feel it.
My parking lot princess,
I found Mona Lisa.
Feels like we're something,
something that's lasting,
yeah I thought it was love,
but I guess it was passion.
Now that you're right there
but so far for so long,
but he's gone smoking a match.

We fall that far out of control,
and when you're living living living
through somebody else's soul,
we learn to love who you are with
we learn to love who you are with
we learn to love who we are with
we learn to love who we are with.

We never looked for anybody else.
We figured once was good enough,
you know you'll only hurt yourself.
Just learn to love who you are with,
learn to love who you are with,
Sometimes we feel so scared and sick
that we just love who we are with.

And as the years and years went by,
and we fell less and less in love,
we slowly stopped complaining about
what our parents did to us
'cause they couldn't love who they were with,
no longer loved who they were with.
Sometimes we feel so scared and sick
that we just love who we are with.

You know we wanted the real thing so bad
we could taste it.
We've wanted the real thing so bad
we could make it.
The story unwinding,
the thunder the lightning,
yeah I though it was love,
but I guess it was timing,
and I guess if the time's right
then somewhere and somehow
that we'll know before now.

We always love,
we never learn.
It's love and comfort,
sex and wondering
if this could be our turn.
We learn to love who we are with,
we learn to love who we are with,
we learn to love who we are with,
we learn to love who we are with.
