Here goes everything down to the wire   I'm gonna sing like a canary on fire   and the world won't stop, but maybe you will stay   I apologize for rocking the boat   But my heart gets caught on those lumps in my throat    And these word just miss my lips somewhere along the way      You and me, we got no more illusions   wildcards or shadows of a doubt   But the end ain't a foregone conclusion   Oh baby can we live without illusions      Our long shadows cast here in the moonlight    cross the lawn and fade from our sight   and the world beyond is turning like a wheel   Every step we take is out of the past.   Everybody says "Darling, we won't last."   But they don't know what we know or feel what we feel      You and me, we got no more illusions   wildcards or shadows of a doubt   But the end ain't a foregone conclusion   Oh baby can we live without illusions      I can't pretend that the sparks are still flying   or the ember is burning stronger   At least by now I might be getting real good at trying   Can we try a little longer?      You and me, we got no more illusions   wildcards or shadows of a doubt   But the end ain't a foregone conclusion   Oh baby can we live without illusions      courtesy of Joesi
