White Lies - Getting Even lyrics

So if you go and leave recklessly
We can only be me, we can only be me
That's something I
Through the turns of my life
Never wanted to be, never wanted to be

But if you stay just a bolt in the bow
Then you'll never know
Then you'll never know
How you could miss like the daylight the way
You're missing us now, you're missing us now

So listen to some reason
There's nothing in your dreams
But if you're getting even
You're getting even
Trying to get even, better start believing
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this love and
Other nonsense we've made

Now if we kiss, then the moon in the sky
Would linger awhile, would linger awhile
So as to gift just an inch more of night
But you break from my life, no more kiss
No more I

But listen to some reason
There's nothing in your dreams
But if you're getting even
You're getting even
Trying to get even, better start believing
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this wrestling of conscience
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this love and other nonsense

It's the worst part of the best of me
Best of me
Love, I'm trying so hard to be free
Worst of the best of me, best of me
Love and trying so hard to be free
Lonely but free and out of love

If you're getting even, you're getting even
If you're getting even, you're getting even

If you're getting even, you're getting even
Trying to get even, better start believing
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this wrestling of conscience
I can forgive, and we can forget
Even after all this love and other nonsense

You're getting even, you're getting even
And I can forgive, and we can forget
You're getting even, you're getting even
And I can forgive, and we can forget

You're getting even, you're getting even
And I can forgive, and we can forget
You're getting even, you're getting even
And I can forgive, and we can forget
You're getting even
