Lyrics
BEND
IT'S COLD OUTSIDE THE AUTUMN LEAVES ARE FALLING
BUT NOT AS COLD AS HERE INSIDE WHERE WE'VE STOPPED TALKING
I JUST STARE IN SPACE ,YOU STARE AT YOUR COFFEE
SITTING HERE WITH OUR CLOSED OUR MINDS
FILLED WITH STUBBORNESS AND PRIDE, WHY CAN'T WE
BEND
GIVE IN A LITTLE
BEND
MEET IN THE MIDDLE
OUR HEARTS WOULDN'T HAVE TO BREAK
IF WE?D LET THEM JUST BE SWAYED
LIKE BRANCHES IN THE WIND
BEND
HOW'D WE GET SO GOOD AT PUTTING UP OUR FENCES
AND OVER SUCH SMALL MATTERS OFFER SUCH RESISTANCE
USED TO BE THAT WE COULD SEE THE OTHER SIDE
THERE WAS NOTHING IN OUR WAY
WE WERE OPEN, WILLING, UNAFRAID TO
BEND
GIVE IN A LITTLE
BEND
MEET IN THE MIDDLE
OUR HEARTS WOULDN'T HAVE TO BREAK
IF WE?D LET THEM JUST BE SWAYED
LIKE BRANCHES IN THE WIND
BEND
WE'VE BEEN SO CAUGHT UP IN WHOSE WRONG AND WHOSE RIGHT
OH CAN'T WE BOTH LET GO INSTEAD OF HOLDING ON SO TIGHT
BEND
GIVE IN A LITTLE
BEND
MEET IN THE MIDDLE
OUR HEARTS WOULDN'T HAVE TO BREAK
IF WE'D LET BE SWAYED
LIKE BRANCHES IN THE WIND
BEND
IT'S COLD OUTSIDE THE AUTUMN LEAVES ARE FALLING
BUT NOT AS COLD ASW HERE INSIDE WHERE WE'VE STOPPED TALKING
