When you look at me, you know, you’re hard to read,
Because the face I see is not the one I know.
And when you call me baby, what’s that supposed to mean?
I don’t know who you are, how long can we pretend?
See the change, I know, we both don’t have the heart to say,
Can’t return to what we were, it will never be the same.
‘Cause you said you’d never let me go,
And I said I can’t, but now we know that it’s
Too hard to say three words,
Too hard to make it work
When there’s nothing left to talk about.
‘Cause you know the flame is running out,
Two hearts are left to burn,
Do you know we’re only left with smoke?
Black smoke, we’re only left with smoke, black smoke.
I tried to tell myself, that it’s all in my head,
But the truth remains, we’re just too far apart.
You know we’re fooling ourselves if we hold on,
‘Cause we’re fighting for something that we don’t want,
Just leave it now and walk away.
See the change, I know, we both don’t have the heart to say,
Can’t return to what we were, it will never be the same.
‘Cause you said you’d never let me go,
And I said I can’t, but now we know that it’s
Too hard to say three words,
Too hard to make it work
When there’s nothing left to talk about.
‘Cause you know the flame is running out,
Two hearts are left to burn,
Do you know we’re only left with smoke?
Too hard to say three words.
Black smoke.
Too hard to make it work.
We’re only left with smoke.
Too hard to say three words.
Black smoke.
Too hard to make it work.
‘Cause you said you’d never let me go, no!
Yeah, you said you’d never let me go.
‘Cause you said you’d never let me go,
And I said I can’t, but now we know that it’s
Too hard to say three words,
Too hard to make it work
When there’s nothing left to talk about.
‘Cause you know the flame is running out,
Two hearts are left to burn,
Do you know we’re only left with smoke?
Black smoke,
We’re only left with smoke.
