"The Thing About Love" lyrics

"The Thing About Love"

I feel like drifting on an ocean tide
Some kind of blissful unaware
And in that moment someday we'll collide
Whatever forces bring us there
Meet me at the surface
Dive a thousand miles or more
Let the pressure build
And wash our bodies to the shore
Somewhere in the ether
Lies a dimming distant light
I hoped that it would find you
And I hope it's worth the fight

But that's the thing about love
The thing is that we don't talk about it
The thing about love
The thing is that we'll both walk around it
The thing is that everything, everything
Always makes you doubt it
The thing about love
The thing about love
But that's the thing about love

And now we're over here with open eyes
Now that everything's laid bare
But I'm not one for running
No I'm not one for that
Maybe it's delusion
That I think you're coming back
Save me from sorrow
The hurt to be exact
Keep me from the crossfire
Leaving everything intact

But that's the thing about love
The thing is that we don't talk about it
The thing about love
The thing is that we'll both walk around it
The thing is that everything, everything
Always makes you doubt it
The thing about love
The thing about love
But that's the thing about love

But that's the thing about love
The thing is that we don't talk about it
That's the thing about love
The thing is that we don't talk about it
The thing about love
The thing is that we'll both walk around it
The thing about love
The thing about-
The thing about love
