Unnecessary Romance

Unnecessary Romance

Strophe 1

I tried to get to you but your mind is rock hard

Like the pebbles that you throw at the sea in the dark

Creating little waves before they hit the ground

Never thought that it all would tear us apart

Had so much in common, I knew you by heart

But those little waves on waters hit us hard

During the time we spent, I liked to pretend

’Cause I knew what you did and you knew what you started

Chorus

Set my expectations high

And then you said goodbye

And everything we had

Got lost

In our unnecessary romance

You walk by

Can’t look you in the eyes

I used to make you smile

Now I cry

’Cause my laugh’s got lost in our unnecessary romance

Strophe 2

I try to get to you but your mind is rock hard

Like the pebbles that you throw in the sea in the dark

Disrupting a once perfect surface

It lets go of us — no, we’re not worth it

Had so much in common, I knew who you are

But the wind has torn us both apart

Just a simple touch, I fall back into us

I knew what you did and you knew what you started

Chorus

Set my expectations high

And then you said goodbye

And everything we had

Got lost

In our unnecessary romance

You walk by

Can’t look you in the eyes

I used to make you smile

Now I cry

’Cause my laugh’s got lost in our unnecessary romance

Bridge

And I don’t recall

Last time we talked

But in my head I still

Try to get to you, but your mind is rock hard

Like the pebbles that you throw in the sea in the dark

Creating little waves before they hit the ground

Never thought that those waves...

Chorus

Set my expectations high

And then you said goodbye

And everything we had

Got lost

In our unnecessary romance

You walk by

Can’t look you in the eyes

I used to make you smile

Now I cry

’Cause my laugh’s got lost in our unnecessary romance
