Lyrics
the only problem with this
some things weren't meant to be fixed
some roads just go straight ahead
and that's the problem with us
some things weren't meant to be touched
some fires shouldn't be fed
to see you in your dressing gown
i've never seen you look so down
i wonder what will make you smile
it makes me feel a hypocrite
but sometimes i can't deal with it
i wonder what will make you smile
the lion lays straight ahead
he's at the foot of the bed
with eyes you never will trust
despite the passage of time
nothing has kept this in line
this couldn't happen to us
(chorus)
