[Verse 1]
I think it's tragic how I breathe in life
I think it's tragic how I only walk sideways
That's why I love the way you see things through
The way that everything lights up 'round you, yeah

[Hook 1]
And I'll be keeping all my troubles at bay
You've got to make it last somehow
You got to keep it going everyday
You've got to make it last somehow

[Hook 2]
So do you feel what I want, feel what I need?
Let's stay open now and be swore on how
Do you feel what I want, feel what I need?
Let's stay open now and be swore on how

[Verse 3]
I think it's tragic how I close my eyes
I think it's tragic how I never get peace of mind
That's why I love the air that seeps through you
It makes me better so I breathe it too, yeah

[Hook1]
And I'll be keeping all my troubles at bay
You've got to make it last somehow
You got to keep it going everyday
You've got to make it last somehow

[Bridge 1]
I don't care what they say
But the night is eating us slowly
I won't hear it anyway

[Hook 2]
So do you feel what I want, feel what I need?
Let's stay open now and be swore on how
Do you feel what I want, feel what I need?
Let's stay open now and be swore on how

[Bridge 2]
Cause time heals you
It opens up a closing heart
[Hook]
So do you feel what I want, feel what I need?
Do you...see what I am?
(Feel what I need) Gotta make it last somehow
(Feel what I need) Gotta make it last somehow

[Outro]
Cause time heals you
It opens up a closing heart
