Same Thing

Whenever we talk, we go in circles
over and over again
And if ever we try to work things out,
they just break down right then
We 'been trying too long, I think it's useless
So much we've lost, nothing's been gained
We've got to let go, got to start all over
and see if we can't end this pain

Your beautiful eyes no longer shine so bright
Maybe it's you, maybe it's me
But us two together makes one lonely night
This didn't come suddenly
Time and again we said "Let's give it one more go",
then masquerading one more time
But we need to realize what we already know
and finally cross that last line

We said that things would change, but I'm tired of this game,
'cause it seems like the same thing to me
So forget about my name and I'll take all the blame,
'cause it seems like the same thing to me
It seems like the same thing to me
Yeah

One more compromise, one more try at love
Fooling ourselves is habit by now
I want to escape, want to live again,
and put this behind me, somehow
You must understand we can't live this way,
waiting for dreams that never come true
I'd rather wake up and smell the brand new day,
the one that can't include you

We said that things would change, but I'm tired of this game,
'cause it seems like the same thing to me
So forget about my name and I'll take all the blame,
'cause it seems like the same thing to me

We said that things would change, but I'm tired of this game,
'cause it seems like the same thing to me
Babe, there's nothing left to say, we're both better off this way,
'cause it seems like the same thing to me
It seems like the same thing to me
Yeah
