"Just Us (Strings Version)" lyrics

I can't stand being the cause of the tears on your cheek
There's a lump in my throat, and it won't let me speak
You've been asking to talk
I've been putting it off
Guess I'm scared of letting you in on the lies that I keep

And I know the life I've been chasing
Is a waste of time

And I don't wanna say it
But I've been out of control
And I'm ready to face it
Baby, once and for all
I'm so tired of running
I'm sick of letting you down
It's been a lonely road, but it's all over now
It's just us from here on out

And I hear people talk about love just for something to say
And in this modern world it can live and then die in a day
It's a shock to the heart
We get lost in the dark, but
Unconditional love is a light that never fades

And I know the life I've been chasing
Is a waste of time

And I don't wanna say it
But I've been out of control
And I'm ready to face it
Baby, once and for all
I'm so tired of running
I'm sick of letting you down
It's been a lonely road, but it's all over now
It's just us from here on—

'Cause you know that I know it's always been you
Always you

And I don't wanna say it
But I've been out of control
And I'm ready to face it
Baby, once and for all
I'm so tired of running
I'm sick of letting you down
It's been a lonely road, but it's all over now
It's just us from here on out, whoa, oh yeah
It's just us from here on out

Mm, from here on out
Mm
