[Verse 1]
By the grace of your lips
I have long searched happiness
And the love in our hearts
Shine away through the dark
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But lately, lately, lately, lately I
Have felt an overwhelming need to cry
And, maybe, maybe, maybe, we can try
To make it right, oh, to make it right
[Chorus]
This is our break up song, but (Our break up song)
Can't we just get along for the night? (Yeah)
Not fight, one last goodbye (Mhm)
But just a moment, let me hold back
Maybe hold back all the things we haven't said (Mhm)
Make love like we just met
[Verse 2]
By the way that you kiss
I know it's over, yeah, all of this
And the one world, that we knew
Has broken in two
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause lately, lately, lately, lately I (Lately I)
Have felt again a change I can't deny
And, baby, maybe, maybe, if we try (Oh)
We make it right, yeah, we make it right
[Chorus]
This is our break up song, but (Our break up song)
Can't we just get along for the night? (Yeah)
Not fight, one last goodbye (Mhm)
But just a moment, let me hold back
Maybe hold back all the things we haven't said (Mhm)
Make love like we just met
[Bridge]
Oh, I'm gonna miss the way you held me in the morning (Sha, la-la-la)
I'm gonna miss the future that we planned (Sha, la-la-la, ah)
The way we fought, the way we kissed
The heat inside, the tenderness (Sha, la-la-la)
Love was our religion (Sha, la-la-la), woo
[Breakdown]
This is our break up song, but
Can't we just get along for the night?
In spite of the hurt we hide
For old time's sake won't you just take me by the waist
And hold me underneath the sheets?
Make love like our first week
[Chorus]
This is our break up song, but (Our break up song)
Can't we just get along for the night? (Get along)
Not fight (Oh), one last goodbye (Mmm, goodbye)
But just a moment, let me hold back (Hold back)
Maybe hold back (Hold back) all the things we haven't said (Yeah, yeah)
Make love like we just met (Make love, make love, make love)
[Outro]
Like we just met
