Strum
D-DU-UDU
Living  in.. a house  of cards,, praying  the wind doesn't
blow  too hard.
Giving  in.. to differences,, straining  to keep up appearances.
Making  believe the thread can be saved,
 You're aching to leave but deathly afraid of letting  go,
 ..The thread's entangled  you so...
Jealousies..  and legal  fees, running  away like two refugees.
Shadowed  eyes.. and alibis, tell  you too late
 you've been victimized.
Freedom  is here but seems to elude you,
 Trying to change your dreams into what your needs  allow,
 ..It should be easy  by now...
Why  is love,, always  the last  to know?
Falling  back on better  days, trying  your damndest to laugh,
 You've thrown those childish dreams  away, it's over  you say still you ask,..
Why  is love always  the last  to know?
Falling  back on better  days, trying  your damndest to laugh,
 You've thrown those childish dreams  away, it's over  you say still you ask,
Why  is love always  the last  to know?
Why  is love always  the last  to know?
