Lyrics White Lies – Getting Even
Text:
So if you go
And leave recklessly
‘We’ can only be me
‘We’ can only be me
Through the turns of my life
Never wanted to be
Never wanted to be
But if you stay
Just a bolt in the bow
Then you’ll never know
Then you’ll never know
How you could miss
Like the daylight, the way
You’re missing us now
You’re missing us now
So listen to some reason
There’s nothing in your dreams
But if you’re getting even
You’re getting even
Trying to get even?
Better start believing
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense we’ve made
Now if we kiss
Then the moon in the sky
Would linger awhile
Would linger awhile
Just an inch more of night
But you break from my life
No more kiss, no more I
But listen to some reason
There’s nothing in your dreams!
But if you’re getting even
You’re getting even
Trying to get even?
Better start believing
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Wrestling of conscience
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense
It’s the worst part of the best of me
Best of me
Love, I’m trying so hard to be free
Worst got the best of me, best of me
Love, I’m trying so hard to be free
Lonely but free and out of love
If you’re getting even
You’re getting even x3
Trying to get even?
Better start believing
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Wrestling of conscience
I can forgive
And we can forget
Even after all this
Love and other nonsense
You’re getting even x2
And I can forgive
And we can forget
You’re getting even
You’re getting even x4
