I double-cross you

And you get mysterious mail

I've tried hard not to shock you

It's hard not to with the things I could say

Tell me why don't we try

Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves?

Why don't we try

Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves?

You lock your letters in a box

And you've hidden the key

I go one better - I'm indebted

To a contact magazine

Tell me why don't we try

Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves?

Why don't we try

Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for us?

Everybody's got to live together

Just to find a little peace of mind there

If you give up your affairs forever

I will give up mine

But it's hard

So hard

I'm always hoping you'll be faithful

But you're not, I suppose

We've both given up smoking 'cause it's fatal

So whose matches are those?

Tell me why don't we try

Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves?

We make it so hard

Tell me why don't we try

Not to break our hearts and make it so hard

Tell me why don't we try

Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves?

Not to break our hearts and make it so hard for ourselves?

We make it so hard for ourselves

We make it so hard

So hard

We make it so hard
