I'm sick of dropping words like quiet bombs
And sighs that'll cut like a kitchen knife
Only love can take you down like a mother but
We try to pretend we can take it on

Maybe love is the laughter after everything's been said
To hold us suspense while we find each other
When the silence is broken and it all comes down to this
An accidental glimpse of happy ever after

I'll shiver in the cold of the morning light
Silences that'll cut us down to size
Only love can take you down like a motherfucker
Try to pretend we can take it on

Maybe love is the laughter after everything's been said
To hold us suspense while we find each other
When the silence is broken and it all comes down to this
An accidental glimpse of happy ever after
