Living With It Lyrics

I remember where we were when you said it
I'll never forget it
I remember everything about
Our hotel rooms with the double-locked doors in
between
And how I couldn't breathe when you left
Filled with a mixture of thrill and regret
And guilt and desire

The way you talked to me was wild and true
That half-smile and that glow in you.
Your faded blue wagon, your steely-eyed stare
Your signature salt-and-pepper hair.
You said, “Is this the house?”
I said, “Yeah, that's me right there.”
But I didn't get out

Maybe I'm just better at living with it than you are
But I'm the one crying in my car
Telling you to Go when I want you to stay
Maybe I'm gettin' in my own way
Or maybe I'm too afraid to throw it all away


I remember where we were when you said it
I'll never forget it
I remember everything about
Our whispered calls when everyone else was asleep

Dis-armingly honest
With those weathered features
You said, “You know I love you, right?”
And you reached for your t-shirt
I still have your number
I'll never delete it
Do you still have mine?

Maybe I'm just better at living with it than you are
But I'm the one crying in my car
Telling you to Go when I want you to stay
Maybe I'm gettin' in my own way
Or maybe I'm. too afraid
Maybe I'm just better at living with it than you are
But I'm the one crying in my car
Telling you to Go when I want you to stay
Maybe I'm gettin' in my own way
Or maybe I'm too afraid to throw it all away
