Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1

Living in.. a house of cards,, praying the wind doesn't

blow too hard.

Giving in.. to differences,, straining to keep up appearances.

Making believe the thread can be saved,

You're aching to leave but deathly afraid of letting go,

..The thread's entangled you so...

Jealousies.. and legal fees, running away like two refugees.

Shadowed eyes.. and alibis, tell you too late

you've been victimized.

Freedom is here but seems to elude you,

Trying to change your dreams into what your needs allow,

..It should be easy by now...

Why is love,, always the last to know?

Bridge

Falling back on better days, trying your damndest to laugh,

You've thrown those childish dreams away, it's over you say still you ask,..

Why is love always the last to know?

Bridge

Falling back on better days, trying your damndest to laugh,

You've thrown those childish dreams away, it's over you say still you ask,

Why is love always the last to know?

Why is love always the last to know?
