we can be lovers

i don't know what brought me here tonight

i was looking for a little space

i guess you don't know 'til it's staring you in the face

a lonely silhouette from a broken place

a second chance from the past

but when i look back

we burn bright fade fast

it can't add up to nothing

the clock stopped still

my beating heart

we really started something

let's go back to the start

we can be lovers

we can be lovers again

we can be lovers

we can be lovers again

cos we're picking up the pieces

i don't care what she says

cos we can be lovers

we can be lovers again

messages in the mirror

it doesn't make sense to me

but we were just kids and we didn't have a plan b

it's never too late to start again

it's only now that i can see

that your the best thing that ever happened to me

it can't add up to nothing

the clock stopped still

my beating heart

we really started something

let's go back to the start

we can be lovers

we can be lovers again

we can be lovers

we can be lovers again

cos we're picking up the pieces

i don't care what she says

cos we can be lovers

we can be lovers again

i can see desire in your eyes

i can feel the fire deep inside

i can be the one if you decide oh

we can be lovers

we can be lovers again

we can be lovers

we can be lovers again

cos we're picking up the pieces

i don't care what she says

cos we can be lovers

we can be lovers again
