Lyrics
DON’T WORRY ABOUT US
Don’t listen to those words
Don’t listen to those lies
The rumors you have heard
They’re not for you and I
‘Cuz we’re not breakin’ up
We have not come apart
You haven’t killed my love
We haven’t come undone
You haven’t lost my heart
But the world has much to say
And it’s hard to be alive
People getting in our way
When their lives don’t satisfy
Your heart will survive this day
And their shouts will then be hushed
And in my arms you will stay
Those words will pass away
Don’t worry about us
Believe in what we have
Believe our love is true
Don’t think you need to try
There’s nothing you must do
‘Cuz we’re not on the rocks
We haven’t parted ways
You haven’t lost my love
It’s there inside your heart
And that’s where it will stay
But the world ignores our truth
It attacks what we hold dear
It accuses us of youth
Says that we’re not wanted here
So I’ll take you far away
Where the world will disappear
And forever you’ll be mine
We’ll pass away the time
And watch our dreams appear
So put aside
The things that just don’t matter
I’ll show you that the truth is waiting in my love
And don’t believe
The things that make you weep
The pain that cuts so deep
In one second more
What they’ve said before
Will all go away when you’re here with me
And of this I’m sure
The one I adore
Won’t cry anymore
But the world has much to say
And it’s hard to be alive
People getting in our way
When their lives don’t satisfy
Your heart will survive this day
And their shouts will then be hushed
And in my arms you will stay
Those words will pass away
Don’t worry about us
And in my arms you will stay
Those words will pass away
Don’t worry about us
