Description
When feelings turn into a poorly set alarm clock: one wakes up when the other is just falling asleep. Love seems to be there - and even strong - but it's always in the wrong place at the wrong time. Sometimes their fingers are intertwined, sometimes they are on opposite sides of the bed, staring at the ceiling and pretending not to hear each other's breathing. Sometimes it seems like karma - always slightly out of sync. As if someone up there is turning the dial so that the hands never match. And all that's left is to curse the same sky, hoping that someday it will get tired of listening and finally bring these poles together in a single minute.
Lyrics and translation
Original
It's easier to leave when everything is gettin' difficult
Miss you when I'm with you lately, it's like I'm invisible now
What's that about?
Starin' at the ceilin', baby, I can't even dream at night
Sleepin' back-to-back 'cause we ain't even seein' eye-to-eye now
What's that about?
We're never in love at the same time
I break your heart, then you break mine
Then we're both cursin' at the same sky
'Cause we're never in love at the same time
You beg me to go, I beg you to stay
You pull me in close and I push you away
You're changin' your mind soon as I make mine
'Cause we're never in love at the same time
I remember when you told me that you thought this was it
That's the second that I told you that it didn't exist
I don't know, I don't know
Maybe there's a world where we're spinnin' together
But if I waited on you, I'd be waitin' forever
Oh-whoa
All I know, all I know
We're never in love at the same time
I break your heart, then you break mine
Then we're both cursin' at the same sky
'Cause we're never in love at the same time
You beg me to go, I beg you to stay
You pull me in close and I push you away
You're changin' your mind soon as I make mine
'Cause we're never in love at the same time
Torn-up pictures on a dresser
Some things can't be taped together
Empty promises in bottles
Maybe things will change tomorrow
We're never in love at the same time
I break your heart, then you break mine
Then we're both cursin' at the same sky
'Cause we're never in love at the same time
You beg me to go, I beg you to stay
You pull me in close and I push you away
You're changin' your mind soon as I make mine
'Cause we're never in love at the same time
We're never in love
Oh, never in love
Never in love, never in love at the same time
