[Verse 1]
We're alone now
Just like always
And like always, I'm feeling so lonely alone with you
We're together
So together
And together, we see how un-together we have grown
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Who'll be the first to say we're out of time?
Did we lose heart, or did we lose our minds?
[Verse 2]
I got my ways
You got your ways
And it seems like the more ways we try, the more ways we fail
There was a time
We had more time
But that time's long behind us and pushing us forward now
[Pre-Chorus 1]
If you went your way, and I went mine
Would we still meet up somewhere down the line?
We'll find
[Chorus 1]
When love was alone
It was so incredible, my love
Now that love is owned
It's all so regrettable, my love
[Verse 3]
When you found me
I was one man
Now we're two who won't become one for the life of me
Now I'm half-baked
At my half-life
Half a man, all my plans also ruined for this also-ran
[Pre-Chorus 2]
The little things that I forgot to do
Is now one big thing killing me and you
I knew
[Chorus 2]
When we were unknown
It was so incredible, my love
Now that all's been shown
It's all so regrettable, my love
When love was full-blown
It was so incredible, my love
Now that love has flown
It's all so regrettable, my love, my love
[Bridge]
What could I do, my love?
Was it all up to me, yeah?
Or was it all up to you, my love?
I always knew, my love
It was neither one
Yeah, 'cause either one or the other
My sister, your brother would fail
[Pre-Chorus 3]
No, one and one will never become two
When there's a third one between me and you
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus 3]
When love was alone
It was so incredible, my love
Love we thought we owned
Is now so forgettable, my love, my love
Before love had flown
It was so incredible, my love
Now I'm on my own
And it's all so regrettable, my love, my love, my love
[Guitar Solo]
