Paradise Fears – Who We Were With lyrics

We started out, on our own,
We learned to love who we were with, we tried to love who we were with,

Yeah we set out, trying to find a spark,
Two broken homes, and a little dark, searching through the dark,
But we still loved who we were with, we still loved who we were with,
Sometimes we feel so scared and sick that we just love who we are with,

We started drifting, for some common ground,
And as the earth was spinning, we could feel that someday we’d be found,
And we couldn’t love who we were with, no longer loved who we were with,
Started to feel too scared and sick, we couldn’t love we were with

And my young eyes could see it, my young heart could feel it,
My parking lot princess i found mona lisa,
It feels like we’re stumbling on something that’s lasting,
I thought it was love but i guess it was passion,
And now that you’re right there, been so far for so long,
But he’s gone, so i lit a match and—

We felt that fire, out of control,
And when you're living, living, living through somebody else’s soul,
You learn to love who you were with, you learn to love who you were with,
Sometimes we feel so scared and sick then we just love who we are with,

We never looked for anybody else,
Figured once it’s good enough, you know you’ll only hurt yourself,
Just learn to love who you are with, just learn to love who you are with,
Sometimes we feel so scared and sick that we just love who we are with,

And as the years and years went by, then we felt less and less in love,
And slowly stopped complaining bout what our parents did to us,
Cause they couldn’t love who they were with, they couldn’t love who they were with,
Sometimes we feel so scared and sick, that we just love who we are with,

And now we know we wanted the real thing so bad we could taste it,
We wanted the real thing so bad we could fake it,
The story, unwinding. the thunder, the lightning,
I thought it was love but I guess it was timing,
And guess if the time’s right, somewhere and somehow,
Then we’ll know, but for now,

We always live, but we never learn,
It’s all love and comfort, sex and wondering if this could be our turn,
We learn to love who we are with, we learn to love who we are with,
