I got a wake up call, I got to make this work

Cause if we don't we're left with nothing and that's what hurts

We're so close to giving up but something keeps us here

I can't see what's yet to come

But I have imagined life without you and it feels wrong

I want to know where love begins, not where it ends

'Cause we don't know what we're doing

We're just built this way

We're careless but we're trying

'Cause we both make mistakes

And I don't want to keep on running

If we're only gonna fall behind

We've almost got it right

But almost wasn't what I had in mind

We want it all and deserve no less

But all we seem to give each other is second best

We're still reaching out for something that we can't touch

'Cause we don't know what we're doing

We're just built this way

We're careless but we're trying

'Cause we both make mistakes

And I don't want to keep on running

If we're only gonna fall behind

We've almost got it right

But almost wasn't what I had in mind

You know there's nothing like this love

So we don't want to let it go

'Cause we don't know what we're doing

We're just built this way

We're careless but we're trying

'Cause we both make mistakes

And I don't want to keep on running

If we're only gonna fall behind

We've almost it got right

But almost wasn't what I had in mind
