Why does it seem so much harder than it has to be
We swore that we were made for each other, didn’t we
Every day it seems a little harder to cope
Hanging off the edges at the end of your rope
Finding that you’re sliding down a slippery slope with me
Did you think this was a love song
Did you think this was a fairy tale machine
They said that there would be hard times
Now I think I know exactly what they mean
Happily ever after
I know that we’ll make it there someday
Did you think this was a love song
Maybe it is anyway
What did we think that we were gonna have to do
Can we take what we’ve got and turn it into something new
Maybe it’s time to wear my heart on my sleeve
How ’bout we admit we were a little naive
But I’m a believer and I want to believe with you
Did you think this was a love song
Did you think this was a fairy tale machine
They said that there would be hard times
Now I think I know exactly what they mean
Happily ever after
I know that we’ll make it there someday
Did you think this was a love song
Maybe it is anyway
instrumental solo
We’re taking on water but we’re not going down
‘Cause I’m not giving up until we turn this around
If anything is worth it it’s the love that I found in you
Did you think this was a love song
Did you think this was a fairy tale machine
They said that there would be hard times
Now I think I know exactly what they mean
Happily ever after
I know that we’ll make it there someday
Did you think this was a love song
Did you think this was a love song
Did you think this was a fairy tale machine
They said that there would be hard times
Now I think I know exactly what they mean
Happily ever after
I know that we’ll make it there someday
Did you think this was a love song
Maybe it is anyway
