Whatever happened to those days
When you and I avoided reason?
We'd throw reality away
Close the blinds and keep on dreaming

I know you want the perfect scenario
But you can't control
The way the water's flowing
And I hate when you try to

But I tell you what hurts the most
What hurts the most, what hurts the most
Is you don't ever want to count the cost
Of those words you say

I don't wanna rock the boat, but it's hard to cope
When I hold you down but you don't
Ever want to count the cost of the love you take

Whatever happened to those days
When you and I avoided reason?
How did we go from grand designs
To bitterness and confrontation?

Of those words you say

I don't wanna rock the boat, but it's hard to cope
When I hold you down but you don't
Ever want to count the cost of the love you take

The bond would never break
These are the chains of yesterday
I tried so hard to numb the pain
Wipe the tears away
It's too much to take

But I tell you what hurts the most
What hurts the most, what hurts the most
Is you don't ever want to count the cost
Of those words you say

I don't wanna rock the boat, but it's hard to cope
When I hold you down but you don't
Ever want to count the cost of the love you take

I thought our love would light the way
The bond would never break
These are the chains of yesterday
I tried so hard to numb the pain
Wipe the tears away
It's too much to take
But I
