The Love That We Need Lyrics - Lovers And Leavers - Hayes Carll

You say 'I love you' 

I say 'me too' 

We don't think much about it 

It's just a thing that we do 

We go out walking 

We don't talk much 

We lie down together 

But our hearts never touch 

Oh baby it's a hard way 

It's an eternity 

We got the life that we wanted 

Not the love that we need 

We never go to bed angry 

Cause we never fight 

Yeah we never go crazy 

In the middle of the night 

We could stay here forever 

Just holding on 

We both had our reasons 

But our reasons are gone 

Oh baby it's a hard way 

It's an eternity 

We got the life that we wanted 

Not the love that we need 

In our hearts we knew better 

But we couldn't let go 

Now it's time to quit our island 

What we've always known 

If something was missing 

We were too scared to look 

Too busy telling our stories 

Instead of writing the book 

Oh baby it's a hard way 

It's an eternity 

We got the life that we wanted 

Not the love that we need (x2)
