Lyrics

It's just like you to comfort me at a time like this
It's just like you to find a way to stay positive
It's just like me to hide behind an artificial smile
As I pretend it's okay and fight tears back all the while

The truth is I'm so scared
To see you, I'm scared to call
I'm so afraid of what's ahead

CHORUS
If I could change our lives, you know I would
But we're only human at a time like this

VERSE 2
It's just like you to feel guilt for what you're putting people through
When you could lash out, for everything that's happened to you
It's just like me to promise everything will be okay
We both know the truth, so there's nothing else to say

The truth is I'm so scared
Of the writing on the wall
I'm so afraid of what's ahead

CHORUS 2
If I could change our lives, you know I would
But we're only human at a time like this

BRIDGE
Looking back on all the time that we wasted
We got caught up in the everyday game
Think of all the wine that we should have tasted
Now it seems that no one wins

The truth is I'm so scared
Of the curtain that's sure to fall
Because we never seem to learn

CHORUS 3
And if I could change our lives, you know I would
But we're only human
(Yes) We're only human - After All

It's just like you to comfort me at a time like this ...
