You say our loving has died down to nothing   Compared to everyone else   But if all you can give me is just your opinion   Well you can keep that to yourself      The longer the distance keeps growing between us   The harder the trouble is to see   But I guess it's the simple things that make love complicated   Or at least that's how it is with you and me      We're just two people trying to hold it together   And losing it more everyday   Cause no compromising will make it feel better   After the love slips away      Well you've got your TV, your telephone, and neighbors   To keep you from facing the truth   Oh but I've got a feeling if I had a bottle I wouldn't keep reaching for you      We're just two people trying to hold it together   And losing it more everyday   Cause no compromising will make it feel better   After the love slips away      Oh after the love slips away
