We Cant Live Together — текст песни (Joe Jackson)

In distant lands

Theres no such luxury

Youd give your hand

In pre-arranged matrimony

Youd wear the veil

Id sit in some cafe somewhere

Instead of this running around

And this right to be free

So pleased with ourselves but theres one thing Ive found

About you and me

We cant live together

But we cant stay apart



In all my dreams

Ive wanted someone like you

With no extremes

Wed both do what we have to do

But its too easy, and then its too hard

And passion gives us away

We know when to play the right cards

But we never know what to say

And we cant live together

But we cant stay apart



Why cant you be more like me

Or me like you

And why cant one and one

Just add to two



But we cant live together

And we cant stay apart
