I got a wake up call, I got to make this work
'Cause if we don't we're left with nothing and that's what hurts
We're so close to giving up but something keeps us here

I can't see what's yet to come
But I have imagined life without you and it feels wrong
I wanna know where love begins, not where it ends

'Cause we don't know what we're doing
We're just built this way
We're careless but we're trying
'Cause we both make mistakes
And I don't wanna keep on running
If we're only gonna fall behind
We've almost got it right
But almost wasn't what I had in mind

We want it all and deserve no less
But all we seem to give each other is second best
We're still reaching out for something that we can't touch

'Cause we don't know what we're doing
We're just built this way
We're careless but we're trying
'Cause we both make mistakes
And I don't wanna keep on running
If we're only gonna fall behind
We've almost got it right
But almost wasn't what I had in mind

You know there's nothing like this love
So we don't wanna let it go

'Cause we don't know what we're doing
We're just built this way
We're careless but we're trying
'Cause we both make mistakes
And I don't wanna keep on running
If we're only gonna fall behind
We've almost got it right
But almost wasn't what I had in mind
