Here we are just trying to be flatmates Here we are just trying to sophisticate Be an adult, trying not to fall in love Be a human, trying not to stand up Here we are just trying to be neighbors You in bed, me still with the painters Smoking at the window, at the magpies Trying to work out what's the truth and what's the lie I'm not saying that we will be best friends But I took you dancing at the weekend Tell your folks in bed you had to play I'll try to make you feel like the kids are playing pretend I'm not saying that we can't be running mates You run too fast for me, I try to keep the pace What I lack in speed I make up for in the way I move my hips And the way the sun comes out when I move my lips So you won't want to miss All the shapes that can make It's a choice you want to take Here we are just trying to be Oh, here we are just trying not to Fall in love It's only human not to want to be alone Here we are just trying to be Oh, here we are just trying not to Get too close Come on rant to me I'll be your lock and fold Tell me all your dirt I'll never tell a soul Tell me over steam and mac 'n cheese Hold the tray above your knees We can listen to the radio I'm not saying I will kick you downright Stick with me and oh we end up bein' like There are other ways to feel you out I can look into your soul I can feed you all the love I've been savin' up Oh, and don't let me run I'm a-digging my way in I just like the game you're playing Here we are just trying to be Oh, here we are just trying not to Fall in love It's only human not to want to be alone Here we are just trying to be Oh, here we are just trying not to Get too close I'm not saying that we can't be dreamers Here we are just trying to be neighbors We can lie awake and watch the sky Forget the truth, forget the lie For the moment you're my best friend
