Lyrics

Nevertheless

Three words you have spoken Don't make me a fool As a gesture, a token Please play by the rules Please play by the rules Please play by the rules If I knew a way out From breaking your heart Was it free for the taking? To tear it apart? To tear you apart? To tear you apart? To tear you apart? To tear you apart? There can be no mistaking Tell me quick as you can 'Cause I'm so tired faking What we understand What we understand What we understand What we understand
