Juliette & The Licks - This I Know Lyrics

People say you got a lot to learn, that's O.K.
You only complicate things when you're young
The man around the corner likes to roll his dice just for fun
He says "Take it easy, babe. He's not the only one."

When all the light starts to yellow and fade
I see you in the middle and all the love we made
I'm your girl and you're my man
It's just an illusion, this I know

I been around the block once, twice, maybe more
Never met a hungry fool I couldn't learn to adore
Hopeless smiles and crooked eyes
Traded in for a heart full of lies
I won't deny it

When all the light starts to yellow and fade
I see you in the middle and all the love we made
I'm your girl and you're my man
It's just an illusion, this I know

When you've been around easy street
You carry your nightmares
So you'll take the heat
Some are lonely so they'll fight your wars
You never ask for much but you always want more
I'm searching for your love, needing your love
I want relief, oh please

Some people say I've got a lot to learn
Nothing comes easy and nothing comes in-between
I'm your girl and you're my man
I can see the whole world at your feet, oh
People come together to build their whole lives
Nothing for nothing
I can give you something
Sometimes, sometimes
This illusion is all I know
