She's starin' at me, I'm sittin', wonderin' what she's thinkin'. Nobody's talkin', 'Cause talkin' just turned into screamin'. And now is I'm yellin' over her, She's yellin' over me. All that that means Is neither of us is listening, (And what's even worse) That we don't even remember why were fighting. So both of us are mad for Nothin' (Fighting for). Nothin' (Crying for). Nothin' (Whoa). But we won't let it go for Nothin' (No not for) Nothin'. This should be nothin' to a love like what we got. Oh, baby I know sometimes It's gonna rain But baby, can we make up now 'Cause I can't sleep through the pain (Cant sleep through the pain) Girl, I don't wanna go to bed (Mad at you), And I don't want you to go to bed (Mad at me). No, I don't wanna go to bed (Mad at you), And I don't want you to go to bed (Mad at me) Oh, no, no, no And it gets me upset, girl When you're constantly accusing. (Askin' questions like you've already known). We're fighting this war, baby When both of us are losing. (This ain't the way that love is supposed to go). Whoa, (What happened to workin' it out) We've falled into this place Where you ain't backin' down And I ain't backin' down. So what the hell do we do now It's all for Nothin' (Fighting for). Nothin' (Crying for). Nothin' (Whoa). But we won't let it go for Nothin' (No not for) Nothin'. This should be nothin' to a love like what we got. Oh, baby I know sometimes It's gonna rain But baby, can we make up now 'Cause I can't sleep through the pain (Can't sleep through the pain) Girl, I don't wanna go to bed (Mad at you), And I don't want you to go to bed (Mad at me). No, I don't wanna go to bed (Mad at you), And I don't want you to go to bed (Mad at me) Oh, no, no, no Oh baby this love ain't gonna be perfect, (Perfect, perfect, oh oh). And just how good it's gonna be. We can fuss and we can fight Long as everything alright between us Before we go to sleep. Baby, we're gonna be happy. I know sometimes It's gonna rain But baby, can we make up now 'Cause I can't sleep through the pain (Can't sleep through the pain). Girl, I don't wanna go to bed (Mad at you), And I don't want you to go to bed (Mad at me). No, I don't wanna go to bed (Mad at you), And I don't want you to go to bed (Mad at me) Oh, no, no, no
