Wes Leslie - Operative Word Lyrics

There's just some things I can't imagine
How are you and I supposed to happen?
When we can't show our love in a healthy way
How are you and I supposed to stay?

Should I give up on what I thought we'd be?
An apparent end with no apology?
I still think that I might be your one and only
I don't want to end up as your old and lonely

I just want to be
The one that you see
The one that you read
The one that you need

Your operative word
But we can't show our love in a healthy way
Your operative word
But we can't show our love in a healthy way

There's just some things I can't imagine
You and I alone with all our passion
How come you come easy but love comes hard?
I wish it could be simple, but it's not
Should I give up on what I thought we'd be?
An apparent end with no apology?
I still think that I might be your one and only
I don't want to end up as your old and lonely

I just want to be
The one that you see
The one that you read
The one that you need

Your operative word
But we can't show our love in a healthy way
Your operative word
But we can't show our love in a healthy way

"If you're going to put in a solid month of chat on Tinder
Then add me on Facebook, and you're gonna talk to me about the lyrics of your songs
And then like every single one of my photos on Instagram
Just maybe, don't ignore me when I'm at the same gigs as you"

There's just some things I couldn't fathom
Now it's me alone with all my phantoms
For all you know our love might come back someday
For all you know it never went away
