Read between the lines and tell me darlin’

This ain’t going nowhere fast

Oh, it hurts to see it like that

But it ain’t a secret things are different

It feels colder in this bed

Laying on words we’ve left unsaid

I don’t mean to tear you down

But we’re a long way from common ground

We’re just stranded

And empty-handed

There’s something missing in the way that we are, and I can’t stand it

So we keep running

Though it’s all for nothing

‘Cause we’re just holding onto hope that someday we’ll be something

Oh, but that’s not lovin'

Can you remember the days when this was easy?

Did we let a good thing slide?

Did we just get too tired?

I’m sorry but I can’t see this through, dear

Oh, it’s hard for me to say

And even harder to walk away

'Cause we’re just stranded

And empty-handed

There’s something missing in the way that we are, and I can’t stand it

So we keep running

Though it’s all for nothing

‘Cause we’re just holding onto hope that someday we’ll be something

Oh, but that's not lovin'

I don’t mean to tear you down

But we’re a long way from common ground

We’re just stranded

And empty-handed

There’s something missing in the way that we are, and I can’t stand it

So why do we keep running?

Knowing it’s all for nothing

I'm so sick and tired of hanging on to the hope that we’ll be something

Oh, 'cause that's not lovin'

That's not lovin'

That's not lovin'
