[Verse 1]
Love
This is getting harder
And I can't seem to pick you out of the crowd
But you, my dear
Have been discovered a liar
And I'm afraid that this is building up for far too long

[Chorus]
And this is not the time or place for us to speak like this
(Even if I had the thought, I'd never dream of it)
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water
In a different time or place, the words could make more sense
(In a perfect world, the future wouldn't make a dent)
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water
Even though it's the last time

[Verse 2]
Love
This is getting the best of me
And truth be told, you were the start of it all
Now you, my dear, might end up lonely (lonely)
Before you go, there's something you should know (You should know)

[Chorus]
And this is not the time or place for us to speak like this
(Even if I had the thought, I'd never dream of it)
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water
In a different time or place, the words could make more sense
(In a perfect world, the future wouldn't make a dent)
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water
Even though it's the last time
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
This is not the time or place for us to speak like this
(Even if I had the thought, I'd never dream of it)
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water
In a different time or place, the words could make more sense
(In a perfect world, the future wouldn't make a dent)
So dry your hollow eyes and let's go down to the water

[Outro]
Please, let's not speak, don't breathe a word
Even though it's the last time
Please, let's not speak, don't breathe a word
Even though it's the last time
