Strum
D-DU-UDU
These  broken dreams  are enough
 To make better  people give up,  but not us
We  soldier on  like nothing's wrong
 Did we think  that we'd last this long?
We touched  souls while walking  across the coals
If we  give up nothing  will be good enough
 If we never  make love again
 Will you still  want to call out my name?
 There's nothing  left to explain
 When we admit  that there's no one to blame
You  drove my car  down the street
 Thinking you  would never repeat  all those lines
I  sat and stared  into space
 But all  I could see was your face  above mine
It's  easy  to hurt  the one you love the most
Stay  with  me; we're never  giving up the ghost
 If we never  make love again
 Will you still  want to call out my name?
 There's nothing  left to explain
 When we admit  that there's no one to blame
These  wasted words
Never  to be heard
 Are we afraid  that there's more  to life than love?
 If we never  make love again
 Will you still  want to call out my name?
 There's nothing  left to explain
 When we admit  that there's no one to blame
