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.
[Intro]
Let's start with just the basics then
I'm sure that we could fake it when
It's time to say how much it meant
And we walk out so innocent
[Verse 1]
You can be so persuasive
When you say it's
More than a day trip
And convince me
I'm condescending
When I ask, "Will this be ending?"
How quickly lust can pretend it's love
[Chorus]
We're just the boys and girls that think they always know
With answers for the world
The ambiguity shows
We're just the boys and girls that dance with all their clothes (we are the boys and the girls)
Hiding under the sheets
Believing nobody knows
[Verse 2]
All the suspense
That we've created
Now it's wasted
And we can't change it
The beginning to the ending
I find myself remembering
[Pre-Chorus]
How quickly lust can pretend it's love
Designing words to help us believe
It's so much more than just tonight
So we have got to get this right
How quickly words can become our hands (you wanted more, you wanted more)
Resigning everything we believe (you wanted more, you wanted...)
You wanted more, you wanted more.
[Chorus]
We're just the boys and girls that think they always know (we are the boys and the girls)
With answers for the world
The ambiguity shows
We're just the boys and girls that dance with all their clothes (we are the boys and the girls)
Hiding under the sheets
Believing nobody knows
[Verse 3]
You could be the one to stay
Made from birth for just this day
But something tells me it's not right
If we could lose it all tonight
I'm no better on my own
Leave the message on your phone.
Always trying what I can.
To be a child and not a man
[Chorus]
We're just the boys and girls that think they always know (we are the boys and the girls)
With answers for the world
The ambiguity shows
We're just the boys and girls that dance with all their clothes (we are the boys and the girls)
Hiding under the sheets
Believing nobody knows
[Outro]
My hands across your clothes (my hands across your clothes)
And me without a plan (Something I'll miss)
To keep us boys and girls (to keep us boys and girls)
Another woman and man?
(Something I will always miss)
