When All We Had Was Each Other

I didn't think this would work

I was banking on us struggling forever

I'm not proud of it, but I think I liked it

When all we had was each other

Back in our studio apartment

When we only worked just enough to make rent

Eat beans and rice, drink wine with ice

And waste away the hours

Now I'm on the west coast, you're in Spain

And when I call you you're on stage

Touch myself in a cheap hotel

And fall asleep watching Grey's

We're growing up, we're not unique

The honeymoon can only last so long

I'm making friends, I'm living my dream

But doing it without you just feels wrong

So I close my eyes and picture you laughing

Wherever you are

And suddenly I don't feel so alone

Write everything down, don't leave anything out

I wanna hear it all when we get home

I didn't think this would work

I was banking on us struggling forever

I'm not proud of it, but I think I liked it

When all we had was each other
