 We all lead
 Such elaborate lives
 Wild ambition
 In our sights
 How an affair
 Of the heart
 Survives
 Days apart
 And hurried nights
 Seems quite
 unbelieveable  to me
 I don't want  to live like that
 Seems quite unbelieveable  to me
 I don't wanna love  like that
I  just want our time to be
 Slower and gentler
Wiser
Free
 We all live
 in extravagant times
 Playing  games
 we can't all  win
 Unintended
 emotional crimes
 take  some out
 take others  in
 I'm so tired of all  we're going through
 I don't want  to live like that
 I'm so tired of all  we're going through
 I don't wanna love  like that
I  just wanna be  with you
 Now and forever
Peaceful
True
 This may not be the  moment
 to tell you face  to face
 But I could wait forever
 for the perfect time and  place
We  all lead
 such elaborate lives
 We don't know
 whose words are true
 Strangers lovers
husbands  wives
 Hard to know
 who's loving who
 Too many choices  tear us apart
 I don't want to  live like that
 Too many choices  tear us apart
 I don't wanna  love like that
I  just wanna touch your  heart
 May this confession
be  the
 (begin picking)
 start
