The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
I doublecross you And you get mysterious mail I've tried hard not to shock you It's hard not to with the things I could say Tell me why don't we try Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves? Why don't we try Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves? You lock your letters in a box And you've hidden the key I go one better, I'm indebted To a contact magazine Tell me why don't we try Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves? Why don't we try Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for us? Everybody's got to live together Just to find a little peace of mind there If you give up your affairs forever I will give up mine But it's hard So hard I'm always hoping you'll be faithful But you're not, I suppose We've both given up smoking 'cause it's fatal So whose matches are those? Tell me why don't we try Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves? We make it so hard Tell me why don't we try Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves? Tell me why don't we try Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves? Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves? We make it so hard for ourselves We make it so hard So hard We make it so hard
