we never talk about the big things anymore it’s too hard there’s a canyon between us that we can’t cross it’s too far
whatever happened to you? you used to be the searching kind lately you turn and run like you’re afraid of what you’ll find
i know you believe the heart is only a simple machine and the love that’s running through our veins it’s just a pulse of electricity and you’ve given up on finding meaning in this great big mystery but baby don’t give up, baby don’t you give up on me
it’s not easy loving someone like you who’s got it all figured out it must be hard for you too, trying to wrap your arms around me and all my doubts
don’t think i’ve ever been that sure of anything i’ve always got a lot of open ended questions haunting me
but i refuse to believe the heart is only a simple machine and the love that’s running through our veins it’s just a pulse of electricity i’m not given up on finding meaning in this great big mystery so baby don’t give up, baby don’t you give up on me
you say we’re like a light switch we’re on and then we’re off and this is all there is we’re here and then we’re gone then we’re gone
how can you believe the heart is only a simple machine and the love that’s running through our veins it’s just a pulse of electricity don’t you give up on finding meaning in this great big mystery and baby don’t give up, baby don’t you give up on me
