The written word was just enough
To keep us going when the world would get a little tough
and I held you up when winter came

and no-one said a thing and everything became so very

Complicated

Complicated
Complicated they said


The spring held nothing but surprise
and all that we ignored was open to our eyes
and I said

and maybe we should settle down
find a cottage or a tunnel underground
and we'll be


Complicated
Complicated

Complicated they said we would be
Complicated
Complicated

Complicated the said

Ohhh I should have known

Ohhh We'll have to goo ohh
Back to the way that we were before we were us
Before I was me

Before we were happier than I've ever been
Than you'll ever see
Cus' that's the way it has to be

The way it has to be

We felt the summer on our skin

We curled up in the warmth
and let each other in
And I asked 'have you felt this way before?'

You turned to me said no
I'll be forever yours
and we'll be


Complicated
Complicated

Complicated they said we would be
Complicated
Complicated

Complicated they said

Ohh I should have known

And I said
Ohh We'll have to go ohh
Back to the way that we were

before we were us
Before I was me
Before we were happier than I've ever been

Than you'll ever see
Cus' that's the was it has to


I would push and you would pull away from me
My heart would bleed
and I'd say things I didn't mean

To try and get you back to me
We'd bend the rules
Play the games

and never said we felt the same
We ended things like we began
And feared what we became


So we'll go back to the way that we were
Before we were us

Before I was me
Before we were happier than I've ever been
Than you'll ever see

Cus' that's the way it has to

Back to the way

that we were
Before we were us
Before I was me
Before we were happier than I've ever been
Than you'll ever see

Cus' that's the way it has to be

That's the way it has to be
The way it has to be
