Song lyrics
It is so easy to see
Dysfunction between you and me
We must free up these tired souls
Before the sadness kills us both

I tried and tried to let you know
I love you but I'm letting go
It may not last but I don't know
Just don't know

If you don't know
Then you can't care
And you show up
But you're not there
But I'm waiting
And you want to
Still afraid that I will desert you

Everyday
With every worthless word we get more far away
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way

A bed that's warm with memories
Can heal us temporarily
The misbehaving only makes
The ditch between us so damn deep

Built a wall around my heart
I’ll never let it fall apart
But strangely I wish secretly
It would fall down while I'm asleep

If you don't know
Then you can't care
And you show up
But you're not there
But I'm waiting
And you want to
Still afraid that I will desert you, babe

Everyday
With every worthless word we get more far away
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way

Tough we have not hit the ground
It doesn't mean we're not still falling,
Oh I want so bad to pick you up
But you're still too reluctant to accept my help
What a shame, I hope you find somewhere to place the blame
But until then the fact remains

Everyday
With every worthless word we get more far away
The distance between us makes you so hard to stay
Nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way

Everyday
With every worthless word we get more far away
The distance between us makes it so hard to stay
But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way

He-ey, he sang parts of this song on "Heard 'em Say" by Kanye West... That's the coolest thing in the world! HAHA anywayz... it's pretty ghetto. I like, I like.

This song is one of my favourites from the album! I noticed too he used the lines from "heard 'em say".

But nothing lasts forever, but be honest babe
It hurts but it may be the only way


Just awesome.

I loved utterly the Kanye's collabs.
I love the fact once recorded extended for the album, the song starts with that chirpy sweet sound matched by vocals on it, as sweet and someway distant, because it truly gives a sense of nostalgia when it comes to realizing something once thought valuable has been drained till status of unmattering.

I just connect with that a lot.

His voice sounds so mellow in this song. What a lovely piece of music this is. It seems birdies chirp over the melody. Wonderful!

The evolution of a collab that I love to death. And by sayng "evolution" I totally mean it: it has grown, and it's so well descriptive of a break up pain I can't avoid to be taken over ever single listening I give to it. So damn precious song.

So melancholic, and so touching. Amazing mix between music, lyric and tones of singing.
I love to sing along this one: heals me completely.
