Activity's killing the actor
The cop's standing out on the road, turning traffic away
There was nothing she could do until after
When his body'd been buried below
Way back in the day
 
Oh my, nothing else could've been done,
Made his life a lie
so he might never have to know anyone
Made his life a lie
You know
 
I told him that he shouldn't upset her
And that he'd be only making it worse
Falling for somebody else
But I knew that he'd never forget her
His memory worked in reverse
To keep him safe from himself
 
And oh my, nothing else could've been done
She made her life a lie
so she might never have to know anyone
Made her life a lie
You know ohhhh
 
What I used to be
Will pass away
And then you'll see
That all I want now
Is happiness
For you and me
 
What I used to be
Will pass away
And then you'll see
That all I want now
Is happiness
For you and me
 
What I used to be
Will pass away
And then you'll see
That all I want now
Is happiness
For you and me
 
All I want now
Is happiness
For you and me
