The Trouble Is Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Looking for something

Don't they always say you'll know

It's exactly what you want

'til everything you want outgrows you, owns you



[Verse 2]

It's the dry sunshine we ordered

Full of empty promise

It's the water under bridges

It's about time that we caught it, isn't it



[Pre-Chorus]

I know you wanted something better than this (hey, hey)



[Chorus]

I think the trouble is what you want (hey, hey)

I think the trouble is just what gets you off

We're in the same America

Looking for some way to get it right

The things you think to yourself at night

Hey, yeah



[Verse 3]

Found you in the desert

Wallowing in purple rain

Got exactly what we wanted

Left it all to chase the pain, more freely



[Verse 4]

It's a risky thing we started

When already broken-hearted

It's a lot of burning bridges

To trade for all these hot air kisses, man



[Chorus]

I think the trouble is what you want (hey, hey)

I think the trouble is just what gets you off

We're in the same America

Looking for some way to get it right

The things you think to yourself at night

Hey, yeah



[Bridge]

No promises, no apparitions

It's not a new religion, sing to myself

I know I stay through the collision

I wanna stay here in silence for a while



[Chorus]

I think the trouble is just what gets you off

We're in the same America

Looking for some way to get it right



I think the trouble is what you want (hey, hey)

I think the trouble is just what gets you off

We're in the same America

Looking for some way to get it right

The things you think to yourself at night
