We Can`t Live Together — текст песни (Joe Jackson)

In distant lands
There`s no such luxury
You`d give your hand
In pre-arranged matrimony
You`d wear the veil
I`d sit in some cafe somewhere
Instead of this running around
And this right to be free
So pleased with ourselves but there`s one thing I`ve found
about you and me
We can`t live together
But we can`t stay apart

In all my dreams
I`ve wanted someone like you
With no extremes
We`d both do what we have to do
But it`s too easy, and then it`s too hard
And passion gives us away
We know when to play the right cards
But we never know what to say
And we can`t live together
But we can`t stay apart

Why can`t you be more like me
Or me like you
And why can`t one and one
Just add to two

But we can`t live together
And we can`t stay apart
