Getting Even

[Verse 1]
So if you go and leave recklessly
'We' can only be me, 'we' can only be me
That's something I, through the turns of my life
Never wanted to be, never wanted to be

[Verse 2]
But if you stay just a bolt in the bow
Then you'll never know, then you'll never know
How you could miss like the daylight the way
You're missing us now, you're missing us now

[Chorus]
So listen to some reason, there's nothing in your dreams!
But if you're getting even, you're getting even
Trying to get even? Better start believing
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this love and other nonsense we've made

[Verse 3]
Now if we kiss, then the moon in the sky
Would linger a while, would linger a while
So as to gift just an inch more of night
But you break from my life, no more kiss, no more I

[Chorus]
But listen to some reason, there's nothing in your dreams!
But if you're getting even, you're getting even
Trying to get even? Better start believing
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this wrestling of conscience
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this love and other nonsense

[Bridge]
It's the worst part of the best of me, best of me
Love, I'm trying so hard to be free
Worst of the best of me, best of me
Love and trying so hard to be free
Lonely but free and out of love

[Pre-Chorus]
If you're getting even, you're getting even
If you're getting even, you're getting even

[Chorus]
If you're getting even, you're getting even
Trying to get even? Better start believing
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this wrestling of conscience
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this love and other nonsense

[Post-Chorus]
You're getting even, you're getting even
And I can forgive, and we can forget
You're getting even, you're getting even
And I can forgive, and we can forget

[Outro]
You're getting even, you're getting even
And I can forgive, and we can forget
You're getting even, you're getting even
And I can forgive, and we can forget
You're getting even
