I'm taking advice on love and how to make it And I'm trying not to break it Before it even starts My favorite distraction She's making failure fashion The cameras roll, we lose control of where tonight will end We trade our confidences And lower our defenses But in the final scene I leave the screen to leave me wondering Why do I get so bored, Why can't I just find a love that's worth the wait Instead of wasting time With every line rehearsed and ever smile so fake And in the end I leave much more than I take And now I see that we can never be I was breaking hearts and you were dashing dreams Now I learned one thing: That we don't believe the promises we keep (the promises we keep) Here's what sins are made of She can not be persuaded I missed her heart a million times And God knows I have tried To shoot her with an arrow Of Cupids own design The problem is I always miss an hit a pa**erby Why do I get so bored, Why can't I just find a love that's worth the wait Instead of wasting time With every line rehearsed and ever smile so fake And in the end I leave much more than I take And now I see that we can never be I was breaking hearts and you were dashing dreams Now I learned one thing: That we don't believe the promises we keep She's so alone She's so alone It's taking everything in me to leave It's taking everything in me just to say your name It's a constant reminder to me That I will never be whole again I'm taking advice on love and how to make it (make it) And I'm trying not to break it (break it) Before it even starts Why do I get so bored, Why can't I just find a love that's worth the wait Instead of wasting time With every line rehearsed and ever smile so fake And in the end I leave much more than I take And now I see that we can never be I was breaking hearts and you were dashing dreams Now I learned one thing: That we don't believe the promises we keep (the promises we keep)
