There will be far more tears tonight
Than she has cried in her whole life
She calls her dad and tells him everything's alright
But it's all a lie

He starts to stay at his friends place
They laugh say he'll forget her face
But every night as he starts to close his eyes
He sees her smile

Why do we choose not to love the right one
Why don't we choose the love that's always enough
Life could be easy for me
Life could be easy for you
Why don't we ever see it through

Fear that forces out the words
All the hopes and dreams gone left unheard
It's better not to let themselves get hurt
This time
But it's all a lie

Why do we choose not to love the right one
Why don't we choose the love that's always enough
Life could be easy for me
Life could be easy for you
Why don't we ever see it through

I'm tired of being scared of loving you
I'm tired of being scared of loving you
I'm tired of being scared of loving you
I'm tired of being scared of something new

Life could be easy for me
Life could be easy for you
Why don't we ever see it through
Life could be easy for me
Life could be easy for you
Why don't we ever see it through

Why do we choose not to love the right one
Why don't we choose the love that's always enough
Life could be easy for me
Life could be easy for you
Why don't we ever see it through
