Lyrics

Activity's killing the actor And a cop's standing out in the road Turning traffic away There was nothing she could do until after When his body'd been buried below Way back in the day Oh my, nothing else could've been done He made his life a lie so He might never have to know anyone Made his life the lie you know I told him that he shouldn't upset her And that he'd only be making it worse Involving somebody else But I knew that he'd never forget her While her memory worked in reverse To keep her safe from herself And oh my, nothing else could've been done She made her life a lie so She might never have to know anyone Made her life the lie you know What I used to be will pass away and then you'll see That all I want now is happiness for you and me What I used to be to be will pass away and then you'll see That all I want now is happiness for you and me What I used to be to be will pass away and then you'll see That all I want now is happiness for you and me All I want now is happiness for you and me
