Two of a Kind - Lisa Nilsson

They were making a home

and they said it would last them forever

And she could firmly believe in a lie

just to keep them together

But when he pulls her close at the end of the day

her eyes are looking the other way

If they only knew that the real love lay

in the difference between what they mean and what they say

They were two of a kind

such a sad song to sing

all those big city lights

and the places in between

Could not hide what was lost

or replace were they’ve been

baby, two of a kind

such a sad song to sing

But once in a while

she would dream of a better life

and it would take every peace of her heart

just to keep it alive

And they worked so hard every single day

She got lonely and he got paid

God knows were the real truth lay

But he ain’t giving any answers today

They were two of a kind

such a sad song to sing

all those big city lights

and the places in between

Could not hide what was lost

or replace were they’ve been

baby, two of a kind

such a sad song to sing

They were two of a kind

such a sad song to sing

all those big city lights

and the places in between

Could not hide what was lost

or replace were they’ve been

baby, two of a kind

such a sad song to sing

But once in a while

he would hold her

and she wouldn’t feel so cold

And once in a while

when he told her

she could really believe

They were two of a kind

such a sad song to sing

all those big city lights

and the places in between

Could not hide what was lost

or replace were they’ve been

baby, two of a kind

such a sad song to sing

They were two of a kind

such a sad song to sing

all those big city lights

and the places in between

Could not hide what was lost

or replace were they’ve been

baby, two of a kind

such a sad song to sing
