Make it Last
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Back in town and so sick of pretending
That this feels right
What's the good? Where's the use in extending?
Already made up my mind
Straight off the plane and I ran to you
Though I wanted to run away
It would be far too easy
To keep living my life this way
Over and over
Ooh-ohh
Over and over
Ooh-ooh, ooh
They say
When you love something you've gotta set it free
And I say
No one knows what it's like to be you and me
And maybe we don't either
'Cause we've really only known each other
That's why this time we gotta make it last
That's why this time we gotta make it last
I get cranky and moody and manic
At the drop of a hat
Every time I tried to warn you
Was like a panic attack
It's really hard when there's no one to blame
You just both feel the same (Way)
So let's toast to the bad years behind us
And quit pretending that this one's better
Over and over
Over and over
They say
When you love something you've gotta set it free
And I say
No one knows what it's like to be you and me
And maybe we don't either
'Cause we've really only known each other
That's why this time we gotta make it last
That's why this time we gotta make it last
Over and over
We've come so close to hating each other
Over and over
We've come so close to killing each other
Over and over
I just want you to be happy with another
Over and over
We can't let this go on any further
Over and over
I just want you to be happy with another
Over and over
We can't let this go on any further
