Lyrics

The Way We Are

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.

This is where we are

We've been gazing at the stars

It's left us sleeping through the sun

Seeking solace in the calm

But this is where we are

And I can't tell us apart

Why don't we cherish what we've got

And let go of what we're not

But this is all love

And we've both been here before

We keep on talking, but babe

We keep on talking

This is all love

And it's what we're fighting for

We keep on talking, but babe

Still staying nothing

Stop searching for perfect

Now, darling you don't have to try so hard

(So hard, so hard, so hard)

We're right when we're wrong and I'm calling

We're better off the way we are

(We are, we are, we are)

Don't you like what we've become

Lets stop dwelling on what's done

All the wrinkles of the past

Have now settled down at last

But this is all love

And we've both been here before

We keep on talking, but babe

We keep on talking

This is all love

And it's what we're fighting for

We keep on talking, but babe

Still staying nothing

Stop searching for perfect

Now, darling you don't have to try so hard

(So hard, so hard, so hard)

We're right when we're wrong and I'm calling

We're better off the way we are

(We are, we are, we are)

Stop searching for perfect

(We're crashing into shore)

Now, darling you don't have to try so hard

(Don't over everything we know, everything we know)

(So hard, so hard, so hard)

We're right when we're wrong and I'm calling

(When the cracks begin to show)

We're better off the way we are

(Don't over everything we know, everything we know)

(We are, we are, we are)

Better off the way we are

We keep on talking, but babe

Still staying nothing

(So hard, so hard, so hard)
