[00:14.680]We all lead such elaborate lives
[00:23.980]Wild ambitions in our sights
[00:34.899]How an affair of the heart survives
[00:45.217]Days apart and hurried nights
[00:55.327]Seems quite unbelievable to me
[01:01.570]I don't want to live like that
[01:06.011]Seems quite unbelievable to me
[01:10.687]I don't want to love like that
[01:14.997]I just want our time to be
[01:22.755]Slower and gentler, wiser, free
[01:37.593]We all live in extravagant times
[01:45.351]Playing games we can't all win
[01:54.442]Unintended emotional crimes
[02:02.174]Take some out, take others in
[02:10.272]I'm so tired of all we're going through
[02:14.765]I don't want to live like that
[02:18.553]I'm so tired of all we're going through
[02:23.046]I don't want to love like that
[02:26.494]I just want to be with you
[02:31.457]Now and forever, peaceful, true
[02:39.738]This may not be the moment
[02:43.761]To tell you face to face
[02:47.941]But I could wait forever
[02:51.363]For the perfect time and place
[02:57.684]We all lead such elaborate lives
[03:08.734]We don't know whose words are true
[03:17.172]Strangers, lovers, husbands, wives
[03:25.531]Hard to know who's loving who
[03:33.211]Too many choices tear us apart
[03:38.253]I don't want to live like that
[03:41.884]Too many choices tear us apart
[03:46.638]I don't want to love like that
[03:50.217]I just want to touch your heart
[03:57.871]May this confession be the start

We all lead such elaborate lives
Wild ambitions in our sights
How an affair of the heart survives
Days apart and hurried nights
Seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to live like that
Seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to love like that
I just want our time to be
Slower and gentler, wiser, free
We all live in extravagant times
Playing games we can't all win
Unintended emotional crimes
Take some out, take others in
I'm so tired of all we're going through
I don't want to live like that
I'm so tired of all we're going through
I don't want to love like that
I just want to be with you
Now and forever, peaceful, true
This may not be the moment
To tell you face to face
But I could wait forever
For the perfect time and place
We all lead such elaborate lives
We don't know whose words are true
Strangers, lovers, husbands, wives
Hard to know who's loving who
Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to live like that
Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to love like that
I just want to touch your heart
May this confession be the start
