All We Are

I tried to paint

you a picture

The colours

were all wrong

Black and white

didn''t fit you

and all along

You were shaded

with patience

You''re strokes of

everything

that I need just make

it and I can see

Lord knows I failed you

time and again

But you and me

are alright

We won''t say

our goodbyes

You know it''s

better that way

We won''t break

We Won''t die

It''s just a

moment of change

All we are

All we are

is everything

that''s right

All we need

All we need

A lover''s alibi

Yeah oh

I walked a minute

in your shoes

They never would''ve fit

I figured there''s

nothing to lose

I need to get

some perspective

on these words

before I write

them down

You''re an island

and my ship

is running ground

Lord knows I fail you

time and again

But you and me

are alright

We won''t say

our goodbyes

You know it''s

better that way

We won''t break

We won''t die

It''s just a

moment of change

All we are

All we are

is everything

that''s right

All we need

All we need

A lover''s alibi

Oh

Every single day that

I can breathe

you change my philosophy

I''m never gonna

let you pass me by

So don''t say

your goodbyes

You know its

better that way

We won''t break

We won''t die

It''s just a

moment of change

So don''t say

your goodbyes

You know it''s

better that way

We won''t break

We won''t die

It''s just a

moment of change

All we are

All we are

is everything

that''s right

All we need

All we need

A lover''s alibi

So don''t say

our goodbyes

I know it''s better

We won''t break

We won''t die

Ooh
