The Way We Were Lyrics

Stateside The Way We Were

I left myself in this place
Oh, how I've been dreading these days
Where I battle myself
You've always made me feel this way
I'm falling, not flying, you used me all up

You always use the big world as an excuse
I've been tearing things apart
I need you here with me
But you're still leaving me here, alone

I'm not trying to start a war
Not the one that you're looking for
It's so hard for me to let you go

I'd fight for you
Even if it leaves me stranded
I'd fight for you
I'm left alone and empty handed

Eventually you'll understand why storms that tear the world apart
Their names are after those who stole your heart
I was looking for something to sink my teeth into
I never win

Over and over again

I'd fight for you
Even if it leaves me stranded
I'd fight for you
I'm left alone and empty handed
Can't stand that I don't cross your mind
When you're the reason I lost mine
I'd fight for you

And now we're falling apart
No we can't give it up

I'd fight for you
