If I knew we'd get older, I'd have told you If I had seen today could never last If I knew better, we'd have danced forever But now we're only dancing in the past And I know you were played, so we'll run it back It was always the place we were coming from If we believe that we're done Then all this running's for nothing Now I can see that we're caught up Under this Cold War, fighting for nothing And it's okay we were young The way we looked at the others Now I can see that it all comes down to the flaw We never should have been lovers Now I'm done crying over you If you could only remember How it all broke over the day I said to you That if I could tell you how it felt to lose Then the thought to break this down would never do And I know you were played, so we'll run it back It was always the place we were coming from If we believe that we're done Then all this running's for nothing Now I can see that we're caught up Under this Cold War, fighting for nothing But it's okay, we were young The way we looked at the others Now I can see that it all comes down to the flaw We never should have been lovers And I can't speak It's on the tip of my tongue, but I'm holding it back Oh, and I can't sleep There's something pulling me down, and I'm holding it back And I know you were played, so we'll run it back It was always the place we were coming from If we believe that we're done Then all this running's for nothing Now I can see that we're caught up Under this Cold War, fighting for nothing But it's okay, we were young The way we looked at the others Now I can see that it all comes down to the flaw We never should have been lovers I can see that it all comes down to the flaw We never should have been lovers
