lyrics

Maybe there aint no world for our love
I know there ain't been time or place
But I still love you my darling and I miss you my friends
And sometimes baby I just don't care what it takes

Maybe there ain't no difference that we can make
A world of trouble's a world of shame
Maybe heaven's forever all those light years away
And nothing I could do would make you stay

No there ain't no justice
In anything about love
If it hurts not to touch you
Then the world's not enough
I know that nothing lasts forever
I'm only asking you for today
If that's alright with you
If that's okay

Well maybe there ain't no future where we remain
And our end's within us lying in wait
Tell me what would you want from me
What would you change
If everything would always end the same

No there ain't no justice
In anything about love
If it hurts not to touch you
Then the world's not enough
I know that nothing lasts forever
I'm only I'm asking you for today
If that's alright with you
If that's okay

Did everybody else get hurt the same in these last odd years
Seems like everybody's shadowboxing old friends in a hall of mirrors
I can hear it in the words we say
Still feels like it was yesterday
Such beautiful promises that never took us away

But with the way you treat your lovers
And your hobbies and your friends
I know I've done the same
I can't always be that brave
And when the ghost of all I've ruined
Stares unblinking in my face
With all I've tried to hold that's surely slipped away
Oh you must be love
Born of a stray
Still I'll follow you
Take me wherever you may
And still I'll try to follow you
Today
