Elaborate Lives Lyrics - Singles - Heather Headley

We all lead such elaborate lives 

Wild ambitions in our sights 

How an affair of the heart survives 

Days apart and hurried nights 

Seems quite unbelievable to me 

I don't want to live like that 

Seems quite unbelievable to me 

I don't want to love like that 

I just want our time to be slower and gentler, wiser, free 

We all live in extravagant times 

Playing games we can't all win 

Unintended emotional crimes 

Take some out, take others in

I'm so tired of all we're going through 

I don't want to live like that 

I'm so tired of all we're going through 

I don't want to love like that 

I just want to be with you now and forever, peaceful, true 

This may not be the moment 

To tell you face to face 

But I could wait forever 

For the perfect time and place 

We all live such elaborate lives 

We don't know whose words are true 

Strangers, lovers, husbands, wives 

Hard to know whose loving who
