Only Love (feat. Nate Ruess) - Anthony Green

[00:13.324]Please keep your distance from me,
[00:27.000]I know its hard to believe,
[00:30.000]I never wanted to be,
[00:32.450]Your only love
[00:35.346]I know the sting of pride hurts,
[00:38.019]It only makes matters worse,
[00:40.466]I never said I would be,
[00:43.162]Your only love
[00:45.794]Old ships, battle scars,
[00:48.219]Silhouettes and skeletons,
[00:50.738]The news is on once the clouds are gone,
[00:53.330]These are the things that I am not.
[00:56.250]Old news, heaven sent,
[00:58.906]If heaven wasn't what it is
[01:01.603]If all the stars fell from the storm,
[01:04.170]Then this is what I've become
[01:07.084]I need a new relief,
[01:10.274]Dressed as a new belief and then
[01:13.610]I could try to be anything or anyone other than
[01:16.611]Who I was...
[01:18.418]We never hear the dawn,
[01:20.946]you wake your roommate up,
[01:23.938]So I'm between the sheets,
[01:25.842]Wishing for anyone other than us
[01:28.986]Please keep your distance from me,
[01:31.626]I know its hard to believe,
[01:34.234]I never wanted to be,
[01:36.712]Your only love
[01:39.446]I know the sting of pride hurts,
[01:42.258]It only makes matters worse,
[01:44.914]I never said I would be,
[01:47.546]Your only love
[01:50.116]Long walks, phones that die,
[01:52.539]Summer in the dead of night.
[01:55.116]Some would say our heads are gone,
[01:57.716]These are the things we never was.
[02:00.626]Long cries, no response,
[02:03.306]Silhouettes from all my bones,
[02:06.026]Still we keep our heads on wrong,
[02:08.642]'Cause these are the things we never was.
[02:11.458]I need a new relief
[02:14.882]Disguise a new belief, and then,
[02:17.820]I could try to be anything or anyone other than
[02:20.874]Who I was.
[02:23.102]And I would let you sing,
[02:25.954]Between your mother's sheets,
[02:28.234]And I will slip through the crack of the records that stack;
[02:31.306]Your bedroom walls.
[02:40.292]Please keep your distance from me,
[02:46.589]I know its hard to believe,
[02:49.250]I never wanted to be,
[02:51.826]Your only love
[02:54.554]I know the sting of pride hurts,
[02:57.371]It only makes matters worse,
[02:59.890]I never said I would be,
[03:02.758]Your only love
[03:05.226]Please keep your distance from me,
[03:08.090]I know its hard to believe,
[03:10.586]I never wanted to be,
[03:13.226]Your only love
[03:15.826]I know the sting of pride hurts,
[03:18.762]It only makes matters worse,
[03:21.282]I never said I would be,
[03:24.011]Your only love
[03:26.530]Please keep your distance from me,
[03:29.563]I know its hard to believe,
[03:32.150]I never wanted to be,
[03:34.712]Your only love
[03:37.290]I know the sting of pride hurts,
[03:40.307]It only makes matters worse,
[03:42.835]I never said I would be,
[03:45.290]Your only love
[03:48.130]We need no proper ending that would mean this meant something...
