Leave it there !
The things we disagree about, dump them on the floor.
Leave it like your muddy boots, outside and shut the door.
We\'ll never reach agreement, however hard we try
We\'ll only hurt each other and one of us will cry.
And if we try to work it out, I\'ll end up with the blame.
One word will lead to harsher words and off we go again.
Let\'s just leave it for a while, leave it where it stands.
Outside on the doorstep, untouched by human hands.
Let\'s play our kind of music, the songs we used to know.
Don\'t make reference to it, let\'s just give peace a go.
Let us change the subject, agree to contravene.
You\'re doing it again, you\'ve got to make a scene.
Now don\'t let us begin again, I only mean\'t to add.
You always play the injured party, It\'s always me that\'s bad.
Please forgive my outburst, my stated point of view.
And if it makes you happy, I\'ll just agree with you.
And no, I\'m not just giving way, for a quiet life.
I\'m not the sort of man who wants to argue with his wife.
The little disagreements, should never lead us here.
We both refuse to say we\'re wrong, we both refuse to hear.
Are we not just wasting time, continuing our row?
The only time we\'re guaranteed is in the here and now.
The pressure cooker\'s boiling we can\'t communicate.
Each sentence filled with bitterness, each viewpoint tinged with hate.
While we\'re busy making money, we forget to make a life.
We lost each other somewhere in the chaos and the strife
Looking back on happy days, before we climbed this high.
We did n\'t need a fortune, there was only you and I
Smaller expectations, we never feared to tread.
Cold around the house, cozy warm in bed.
Let\'s try to live those times again, let\'s rewind the time.
To the days when we were happiest, but did n\'t have a dime.
Join me in our journey, let\'s retrace our steps.
Let us find our love again, never to forget.
So about this silly argument, It\'s all been said before.
Leave it on the doorstep, come inside and shut the door.
