Who Are We Fooling? Lyrics - Flags - Brooke Fraser

So we're back here again 

Tiptoeing 'round the edge of the end 

Wondering who will be last to admit 

That we're finally over 

Turned 21 on the day that we met 

Terrible shoes, implausible dress 

It's funny how sad the funny things get as you grow older 

Better or worse but what else can we do 

When better or worse I am tethered to you 

If it's not either of us tell me who are we fooling 

I learnt the art of biting my tongue 

I tired of trying to guess what was wrong 

Both agreed on where we should go, but not how to get there 

We tried and tried to loosen the knots 

Thinking once we're untangled we'll be better off 

But it's these failures and faults that hold us together 

Better or worse but what else can we do 

When better or worse I am tethered to you 

If it's not either of us tell me who are we fooling 

This beautiful tangle that's bruising us blue 

Is the beautiful knot that we just can't undo 

Together we're one but apart tell me who are we fooling 

'Cause real love is hard love 

It's all we have 

It's a break neck 

Train wreck 

It's all we have 

So we're back here again 

Turning away from the edge of the end 

Arm in arm 

Better or worse but what else can we do 

When better or worse I am tethered to you 

If it's not either of us tell me who are we fooling 

This beautiful tangle that's bruising us blue 

Is the beautiful knot that we just can't undo 

If it's not either of us tell me who are we fooling 

Together we're one but apart tell me who are we fooling
