Words on paper said we're perfect
We had such a nice apartment
And the light always hit in the living room at noon
Remember making up on the couch
It was velvet
It was perfect then in the present tense and we felt it
But the present fades to yesterday like it melted
And it's in the rules of love
It's in the rules of love
And I didn't write them and we tried to fight them
But you can't change the rules of love
In the dark we hide our sadness
'Cause when we touch we just don't have it
Let you go so you can roll into happiness
Wish I had the cheat codes to this tournament
It was perfect then in the present tense and we felt it
But the present fades to yesterday like it melted
And it's in the rules of love
And it's in the rules of love
And I didn't write them
We tried to fight them
But you can't change the rules of love
You can't fight them no
You can't fight them no
Mm-mm mm-mm
Mm-mm mm-mm
