It's not that we don't try

[hummingalong]

Judging by the distance written in your eyes
This is that defining moment when people realise
It's not communication, it's not that we don't try
But we don't want the same thing, and facts are hard to fight
But if this is how it's going to end
And if the rules you want to live by won't bend
But when you finally find the life you expect
You'll still need a friend

A compromise solution still may save the day
But when I move into the middle you just walk away
I understand the reason but that don't stop the pain
Your path was there before me, and from it you won't stray
Cos I know that you'll be better off alone
And our love was never written in stone
So when you're out there in the world on your own
You'll still need a friend

We've reached the end I can't deny it
I know the honeymoon is over now
But no matter where you go
I'm on your side
So if this is how it's going to end
And if the rules you want to live by won't bend
But when you finally find the life you expect
You're still gonna need a friend
Oh yeah you're still gonna need a friend

But when you finally find the life you expect
You'll still need a friend
You'll still need a friend
