Last Chance for Romance

I hit the ground before the pavement

Tore my jeans like it's all you ever give

I heard you got the news of my disloyalties

They love rumors and unflattering

If you can handle the worst in me

You can handle anything

You have the prettiest words I've read

Why is it so sad in your head?

And when the moment is over

Do we cut and run

Holding our saddest excuses

We're both afraid to love

We could talk ourselves in circles

Or roll around the crisp new greens of Maine

We could dance til the day is finally over

Take this chance with me right now

I'd rather look in your eyes

Than watch the television tell me

Things that I don't wanna hear

And I recall the words you said

You came out too hot, too livid in the same head

And when the moment is over

Do we cut and run

Holding our saddest excuses

We're both afraid to love

We can hide the feelings, the rush of blood

With our saddest excuses

We're both afraid to love

I keep you around just to break you

And I'll keep you around just to break you down

The moment it's over

Do we cut and run

Holding our saddest excuses

We're both afraid, we're both afraid

And when the moment is over

Do we cut and run

Holding our saddest excuses

We're both afraid to love

We can hide the feelings, not the rush of blood

With our saddest excuses

We're both afraid, we're both afraid to love

We're both afraid to love

We're both afraid to love

We're both afraid to love.
