Lyrics
Verse
Oooh
See I don’t want to face it
What if love once was ain’t love anymore?
See, I don’t wanna break it
Cause I don’t wanna know that if we let it go
That I’d be half the man I am
Imperfect love, I’ll sing your sweet refrain
Living in this beautiful lie (beautiful lie)
(Beau-ti-ful)
Maybe this love is out of focus
And we keep going through motions
But I’ll ignore the obvious
Baby if you’re willing to try
Chorus
My one and only
For you I’m longing
Am I a fool for being stuck in my ways
Feeling so guilty
Lonely and empty
Living off memories of better days
Of better days yeah
(Ah..)
Verse
I know we failed so many times
Let’s keep trying I love you baby and I need you
Girl, I’ll live for ya, die for ya
Never meant for our love to pay for it
Feel so alone
Don’t tell me I’m the only one
That believes that our love’s worth fighting for
See, we’ve lost some battles baby not the war
So put your weapons down don’t want to fight no more
Chorus
My one and only
For you I’m longing
Am I a fool for being stuck in my ways
Feeling so guilty
Lonely and empty
Living off memories of better days
(Repeat)
Vamp
(What we gonna do about us)
What we gonna do
(Girl, we wasting time second guessing)
Let’s not waste another day baby (what we gonna do about us)
(So then answer this question tell me)
Then why are we holding on
