[Verse 1]
If only we could last forever
If you could love me all the time
If only I could make the sun shine
If only I stayed on your mind
Who said I don't, I'll always love you
And I'll learn how to treat you right
You're a man of many heartbreaks
But I keep my hopes so high

[Chorus]
Cause if I stopped the lies
And you stopped making me cry
If we really tried
We could start to make things better
Don't know what love is like
I was an only child
So I know how to fight
We could start to make things better
(ah-ah-ah-ah ha-ah) We could start to make things better
(ah-ah-ah-ah ha-ah) We could start to make things better

[Verse 2]
Baby we should last forever
I wanna love you all the time
I'll find a way to make the sun shine
Need to get back on your mind
I know I'm only blind in places
And we should type the story right
Cause no one needs another heartbreak
Should be me right down the line

[Chorus]
Cause if I stopped the lies
And you stopped making me cry
If we really tried
We could start to make things better
Don't know what love is like
I was an only child
So I know how to fight
We could start to make things better
(ah-ah-ah-ah ha-ah) We could start to make things better
(ah-ah-ah-ah ha-ah) We could start to make things better

[Chorus]
Cause if I stopped the lies
And you stopped making me cry
If we really tried
We could start to make things better
Don't know what love is like
I was an only child
So I know how to fight
We could start to make things better
(ah-ah-ah-ah ha-ah) We could start to make things better
(ah-ah-ah-ah ha-ah) We could start to make things better
