life got in the way lyrics

We knew it all from a little thing
It was everything in our first minute
And it took us to another place
Yeah, another place and we fell in it

How dare you not remember?
How dare you walk away?

We adored every little thing
Every little thing would leave us breathless
Every dawn split another day
And in another day we weren't so restless

And how dare you not remember?
And how dare you walk away?

And I wanted you so much
Just like I do right now
I wanted us to be the one
The poets write their books about

I wanted it to last
I wanted to grow old
But life got in the way

We walked around in a heavy haze
We were stuck in days of so much warring
We got lost in a tricky maze
Yeah, tricky maze that was so scarring

And how come you can't remember?
How dare you walk away?

Then you start to add the little things
Add the little things and trip the mighty
Now we got a little bitter thing
A little bitter thing that grew like ivy

And how dare you not remember?
How dare you walk away?

And I wanted you so much
Just like I do right now
I wanted us to be the one
The poets write their books about

I wanted it to last
I wanted to grow old
But life got in the way

Yeah, and apathy grows quietly
Where rapture used to fly
Oh and promises and certainty
Have left love here to die

Won't you stay?
And don't let this one fall away

And I wanted you so much
Just like I do right now
I wanted us to be the one
The poets write their books about

I wanted it to last
I wanted to grow old
But life got in the way

Yeah, and I wanted you so much
Just like I do right now
I wanted us to be the one
The poets write their books about

I wanted it to last
I wanted to grow old
But life got in the way

Yeah, well life got in the way
