Lately

Lately, we haven't been as close as we used to be. (So you keep telling me)

Sadly, scenarios becoming a reality. (I'm thinking that if)

You feel it too, is there something we can do

Give it one more chance and chalk it off as experience

Bowed head and lowered eyes

Did you see it coming, was it a surprise?

It seems we aimed too high

And as our time flew by

Colors went to black and white

At best a clouded grey

Lately, we're trying to get along as we used to do

Strangely, we have not been achieving what we set out to

If we jump that fence, it's too late to make amends

Can we join that scene, even if it's a blinding green?

Weak at the knees and a plastic smile

Neither willing to go that extra mile

I guess we can't escape our fate

It's time to clean that slate

Past expiration date

Held on too long

Lately, we haven't been as close as we used to be

Sadly, scenarios becoming a reality

Baby, Baby

Remember how we used to be

Oh, you and me

For eternity

Do you remember

Always remember me, yeah

Just you and me, all right yeah
