[Brooke Fraser, Aqualung - Who Are We Fooling? lyrics]
So we're back here again
Tiptoeing round the edge of the end
Wondering who will be last to admit
That we're finally over
Turned twenty one on a day that we met
Terrible shoes, implausible dress
It's funny how sad the funny things
Get as you grow older
Better or worse, but what else can we do?
For better or worse, I am tethered to you
If it's not either of us, tell me who
Are we fooling?
I learnt the art of biting my tongue
I tired of trying to guess what was wrong
Both agreed on where we should go
But not how to get there
We tried and tried to loosen the knots
Thinking once we're untangled we'll
Be better off
But it's these failures and faults
That hold us together
Better or worse, but what else can we do?
And better or worse, I am tethered to you
If it's not either of us, tell me
Who are we fooling?
This beautiful tangle that's bruising us blue
It's a beautiful knot that we just can't undo
Together we're one but apart tell me
Who are we fooling?
Cause real love is hard love
It's all we have
It's a break-neck, train wreck
It's all we have
So we're back here again
Turning away from the edge of the end
Arm in arm
Better or worse, but what else can we do?
And better or worse, I am tethered to you
If it's not either of us, tell me who
Are we fooling?
This beautiful tangle that's bruising us blue
It's a beautiful knot we just can't undo
If it's not either of us, tell me who
Are we fooling?
Together we're one, but apart tell me
Who are we fooling?
Tiptoeing round the edge of the end
Wondering who will be last to admit
That we're finally over
Turned twenty one on a day that we met
Terrible shoes, implausible dress
It's funny how sad the funny things
Get as you grow older
Better or worse, but what else can we do?
For better or worse, I am tethered to you
If it's not either of us, tell me who
Are we fooling?
I learnt the art of biting my tongue
I tired of trying to guess what was wrong
Both agreed on where we should go
But not how to get there
We tried and tried to loosen the knots
Thinking once we're untangled we'll
Be better off
But it's these failures and faults
That hold us together
Better or worse, but what else can we do?
And better or worse, I am tethered to you
If it's not either of us, tell me
Who are we fooling?
This beautiful tangle that's bruising us blue
It's a beautiful knot that we just can't undo
Together we're one but apart tell me
Who are we fooling?
Cause real love is hard love
It's all we have
It's a break-neck, train wreck
It's all we have
So we're back here again
Turning away from the edge of the end
Arm in arm
Better or worse, but what else can we do?
And better or worse, I am tethered to you
If it's not either of us, tell me who
Are we fooling?
This beautiful tangle that's bruising us blue
It's a beautiful knot we just can't undo
If it's not either of us, tell me who
Are we fooling?
Together we're one, but apart tell me
Who are we fooling?
