From across the room
I can feel this tension between us
It's always there
Just outta sightAn' we both know
That love don't live here anymore
You don't have to say it
I can read between the linesWho's gonna leave?
An' who's gonna stay?
An' how long can this house an' two cars
An' one little girl stand in our way?How long can we keep holdin' on
To somethin' that's already gone?
Girl, life's too short to love like this
Too tired to try an' too scared to quitWe took to heart the vows we made
But somehow lost the will
Yeah, we said, "I do"
But do we still?Hangin' on the wall
Is an eight by ten reminder
You in your gown
Me in my rented tuxWe had it all
When all we had was each other
But now, it's gone
That ol' picture gathers dustHow long can we keep holdin' on
To somethin' that's already gone?
Girl, life's too short to love like this
Too tired to try an' too scared to quitWe took to heart the vows we made
But somehow lost the will
Oh, we said, "I do"
But do we still?How long can we keep holdin' on
To somethin' that's already gone?
Girl, life's too short to love like this
Too tired to try an' too scared to quitWe took to heart the vows we made
But somehow lost the will
Oh, somehow we lost all the will
Oh, we said, "I do"
But do we still?Do we still?
Do we still?
