Intro
verse 1
It s easier to forgive someone for being wrong
Than for being right, isn t it?
And how your angry tears will fall when all your plans
Don t suit the one you made them for
It comes to this
Pre-Chorus
It s easier forgetting how you got to shore
When every cloud that blows your way
Is something else to blame me for
verse 2
Hold it up to the light, it looks like love
It s what the mirror says, you name it so
But you cut your pretty shapes as paper flakes
From careful sheets
They blow away, not made to keep
Pre-Chorus
What if alteration makes a little lie?
When what you paint instead is easier on the eye
Than what you hide
Solo
Outro to fade
There are people who you think you re gonna love forever
Oh, when you should know better, you should know better
Some people only see you as a move they re making
Another step they re taking, a bet they re staking
There are people who you think you re gonna love forever
You re gonna stay together, you should know better
Some people don t forgive you what you give up freely
Or that you found it easy, they want to own completely
There are people who you think you re gonna love forever
Oh, when you should know better, you should know better
Some people only see you as a move they re making
Another step they re taking, a bet they re staking
There are people who you think you re gonna love forever
You re gonna stay together, you should know better
