Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
When we first met you said it's complicated take it slow Deeper then water goes the more you wanna dip your toe I couldn't get enough I wanted you right there and then Ignoring all the signs I thought that you and I were cool Said I was beautiful you put me on a pedestal I would do anything to get back to those days again Don't know what's wrong Want to stay In your arms If two people can have it all Live the dream and break the rules Tell me, why not us? If to people can fall in love Destiny should be enough So tell me, why not us? If this ain't right what are we fighting for? Like two worlds at war What the heart beats for is love Turns anything to dust, oh We're out for dinner and I notice you don't look my way Remember when you used to hang on every word I say And compliment me on a dress I would choose to wear Don't know what's wrong Want to stay In your arms If two people can have it all Live the dream and break the rules Tell me, why not us? If to people can fall in love Destiny should be enough So tell me, why not us? If two people can have it all Live the dream and break the rules Tell me, why not us? If to people can fall in love Destiny should be enough So tell me, why not us?
