Joe Jackson - We Can't Live Together lyrics

In distant lands There's no such luxury You'd give your hand In pre-arranged matrimony You'd wear the veil I'd sit in some cafe somewhere Instead of this running around And this right to be free So pleased with ourselves but there's one thing i've found About you and me We can't live together But we can't stay apart In all my dreams I've wanted someone like you With no extremes We'd both do what we have to do But it's too easy, and then it's too hard And pa**ion gives us away We know when to play the right cards But we never know what to say And we can't live together But we can't stay apart Why can't you be more like me Or me like you And why can't one and one Just add to two But we can't live together And we can't stay apart
