Onerepublic — All We Are

I tried to paint you a picture
The colours were all wrong
Black and white didn’t fit you and all along you were shaded with patience
You’re strokes of everything that I need just to make it and I believe that
Time could tear you apart but it won’t break anything that you are
You are
We won’t say our goodbyes
You know it’s better that way
We won’t break
We won’t die
It’s just a moment of change
All we are
All we are is everything that’s right
All we need
All we need
A lover’s alibi
Oh oh
I walked a minute in your shoes
They never would’ve fit
I figured there’s nothing to lose
I need to get some perspective on these words before I write them down
You’re an island and my ship is running ground
Time could tear your apart but it won’t break anything that we are
We are
We won’t say our goodbyes
You know it’s better that way
We won’t break
We won’t die
It’s just a moment of change
All we are
All we are is everything that’s right
All we need
All we need
A lover’s alibi
Oh
Oh
Oh
Every single day that I can breathe you change my philosophy
I’m never gonna let you pass me by
So don’t say your goodbyes
You know its better that way
We won’t break
We won’t die
It’s just a moment of change
Ooh
Ooh
Oh
So don’t say your goodbyes
You know its better that way
We won’t break
We won’t die
It’s just a moment of change
All we are
All we are is everything that’s right
All we need
All we need
A lover’s alibi
Yeah
Ooh
Ooh
So don’t say our goodbyes
I know it’s better
We won’t break
We won’t die
Ooh
