You're complicatin things

I need some room to breathe

I gotta get back to simplicity

If you want more than this

Then tell me what it is I gotta do

Oh, this is killin me

I need you to see

That somethins gotta change



Can we go back to the way we used to be

Back to the butterflies

Starin deep in your eyes

Can we go back to how we used to be

Cause livin and lovin was easy

We gotta find a way to fool reality

And go back to the way we used to be



When did we mess it up

What happened to love

We had it good

But it wasn't enough

We shouldn't let it fade all the way

Were over thinkin this way too much

I want you next to me

But somethins gotta change



Can we go back to the way we used to be

Back to the butterflies

Starin deep in your eyes

Can we go back to how we used to be

Cause livin and lovin was easy

We gotta find a way to fool reality

And go back to the way we used to be



Oh, can we go back



No it doesn't have to be this hard

And this isn't the way we are

Our love was effortless

Now it's tearin us apart

Oh, I'm getting tired of the fight

We can't pretend that it's alright

I'm slowly losing hope

Baby can we try



Can we go back to the way we used to be

Back to the butterflies

Starin deep in your eyes

Can we go back to how we used to be

Cause livin and lovin was easy

We gotta find a way to fool reality

And go back to the way we used to be
