Because we love we have to lose
Those are the rules
Because we never seem to learn
We endlessly return
We had the whole world between us, a wide open sky
Love was so easy, we didn't even try
Gold in our hands that no time could take away
Oh that was yesterday
When all was love and love was all
We sang our song
How silver sweet we sound by night
It's gone with the light
The leaves are falling past the window
We drink our coffee with no sound
The sun is shining but it's still cold
And you say, Why are you still around?
Now we have the whole world between us, a wide open sky
Love gone so easy, we didn't even try
Gold through our hands and now we both have to pay
Only for yesterday
