"The Opposite Of Us" lyrics

"The Opposite Of Us"

You say that you want my love then I'm a believer
You reach your hand out to me then I'm gonna hold it
You fill my eyes with your smiles, my brain with your chemicals
I forgot to say, forgot to say
I'll just say something dumb anyway

And everything is a layer that gets in between us
And every kiss is a countdown, time 'til the next one
This time we're under the sheets and really, baby
I wanna make something else, something new
Something different, something with you

You know my heart feels the hurt when you turn the heat up
Sometimes we're missing the man when it's time to stand up
I feel the pressure like I hear music
I'm only doing the best I can, the best I can
I am trying the best I can

With nobody else left to call
With nobody else left at all
Is when you finally back down
Get your back up off the wall
Well, what else is there left to know?
There wasn't us four months ago
Until somebody backed down
Body backed down from the show

This time, we'll come up for love
This time, we'll come up for love

You say that you want my love then I'm a believer
You reach a hand out to me then I'm gonna hold it
You fill my eyes with your smiles, my brain with your chemicals
I forgot to say, I forgot to say
I'll just say something dumb

Oh, lover, don't you fake it
Oh, lover, won't you figure it out?

With nobody else left to call
With nobody else left at all
Is when you finally back down
Get your back up off the wall
Well, what else is there left to know?
There wasn't us four years ago
Until somebody stood up
We picked ourselves up off the floor

This time, we'll come up for love
This time, we'll come up for love
