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
