Testo di Bookends

From the outside We're a perfect pair. There's no question there. From the outside We're a perfect fit. Everyone knows it. But take a look inside, It's not working at all. We're fighting, we're fading But refusing to fall. CHORUS We stand like bookends. We stand like bookends. We stand... With our backs to each other Trying to hold our lives together. We keep trying. It once felt good. Like we know it should. We keep trying Though it hurts so bad. To get back what we had. If we stand up straighter We won't fall apart. I thought love was easy Should it be this hard? CHORUS BRIDGE But we never talk about it. Why can't we talk about it? Does it have to be this way?
