For all the love we've made Just one thing stays the same The lamp gets dusty The pipes get rusty But I don't wanna wash my hands clean Well you say you love me too Then why won't you go through With the nightly kisses With the hits and the misses Well if you can make it on your own... Then go if you want to go But stay if you want to know the way Through the mess we've made Or lie in the bed you know or go I heard your moving van But I did not take a stand You can't leave with 'em You can't leave without 'em I never thought I'd want to let you... Go if you want to go Or stay if you want to know the way Through the mess we've made Or lie in the bed you know or go
