Enough For Us

Gray morning, streets and your job,
The garage, then you go home,
Your cat's waiting at the door.
Midnight snack and black tea,
The lights of your Christmas tree
That you dressed all alone.
That's your whole schedule.

Did you ever think you'd have to say all of those words?
I didn't know that silence brokes your heart worse. But...

Doesn't that haze over your hometown and traffic lights tell you that this love is worth the fight?
And in the middle of the night, you'll find that all is fine.
Just don't say your bland goodbye.
It's enough for me. It's enough for us.

Noise at home, trains, and study.
I'm not invited to parties,
But I still wouldn't go.
Counting the corners in room,
Then staring up at the roof,
What a pathetic sight.
And that's my whole life.

I never thought i'd have to hear all of those words.
How could I forget that love's the hardest work? But...

The voices in my head and your heart, I can't smash it up.
They tell me that this love is worth the fight.
And in the middle of night, i’ll find that all is fine.
Just don't say your bland goodbye.
It's enough for me. It's enough for us.

(It's enough, it's enough, it's enough)
It's enough for us, oh-ohh
(It's enough, it's enough, it's enough)
(It's enough, it's enough) for us.

I'm so disappointed you said you'd be gone.
You said our love story was just for fun
And we're together until you're young.
(What are we fighting for?)
I'm on the floor trying to freeze the time
Just to hold you with my coldest arms.
I'm feeling the breakdown of all of my charms (That we've been under)
You left me stranded and misunderstood
But we can fix it if we tell the truth.
Love is a cruel game that we can lose,
(Unless we change the rules).

(It's enough, it's enough, it's enough)
(It's enough, it's enough) for us.
