[Verse 1: Ian]
I've only been here to this place
Once or twice
And you always order the same thing
Is it called 'something paradise'?

[Pre-chorus: Ian; Ian & Niki]
Oh give me a break
I think I know a lot about you

[Chorus: Ian & Niki]
But I'm losing it all
And I'm starting from scratch
You said it's easier for you
If we take a step back
Is that what you want?
Is that what love is all about?
To take the easy route
I don't think I wanna stick around
But I do
But I do
But I do
But I do
But I do

[Verse 2: Ian & Niki, Niki]
Easy, this was easy
When it started
Oh believe me
To fall in love is not a choice
But to stay in love is
If we did nothing wrong
Then what did?
[Chorus: Ian; Ian & Niki; (Niki)]
But I'm losing it all
And I'm starting from scratch
You said it's easier for you
If we take a step back
Is that what you want?
Is that what love is all about?
To take the easy route
I don't think I wanna stick around
But I'm losing it all (you don't mean to harm)
And I'm starting from scratch (you have open arms)
You said it's easier for you (I've got a selfish heart)
If we take a step back (I've got a selfish heart)
Is that what you want? (you don't mean to harm)
Is that what love is all about?
To take the easy route
I don't think I wanna stick around
(But I do)
But I do
But I do
But I do
But I do
But I do

[Excursion: Ian; Ian & Niki; (Niki)]
I'm sitting at the table
Looking at an empty chair
Thinking how my life would be like
If you happened to be sitting there
Ahh, within arms reach
Just you and me
That's all we have to be (ahh)
I know, I know
You're so much more
Maybe that's why I can't be yours
Mmm
