We light up the night, concerts and laughs
Singing our songs on the drive back half
Hand in mine, feels so damn right
But closing the distance starts the fight

We burn bright when the doors stay apart
Under one roof, it tears at the heart...

Why can’t we figure this thing out?
When we’re apart, there’s never a doubt
You and me, we shine so bright
Through every date, every night
But living together turns love upside down
Why can’t we figure this thing out?
Oh-oh-ohhh… why can’t we figure this thing out?

Tried it twice, thought we’d make it work
Your place or mine, emotions go berserk
I miss you crazy across this town
But together too long, we both shut down

We got the spark in the spaces between
But closeness we crave becomes a bad scene

Why can’t we figure this thing out?
When we’re apart, there’s never a doubt
You and me, we shine so bright
Through every laugh, every fight
But living together turns love upside down
Why can’t we figure this thing out?
Oh-oh-ohhh… why can’t we figure this thing out!!!

Maybe we’re scared of what forever means
Losing the magic in the in-between
But damn, I love you more than the fight
Tell me we’re worth getting this rightttt!!

Why can’t we figure this thing out?
(Why can’t we figure it out?)
When we’re apart, no shadow of doubt
You and me, we feel so right
Why does living together turn love upside down?
Why can’t we figure this thing out?
Oh-oh-ohhh… why can’t we… figure this thing out?!!
