After all this time
After all this time
After all this time
After all ...

Talk about love, talk about living
Talk about trying to be forgiving, now
I don't see it

Do as I say not as I do
I never thought that was me and you, but that's how
I've been treated

We start out tender and so young
Looking back now I see all the damage done

And after all this time
After all this time
After all this time
After all ...

How to love, how to live
The bittersweet gift we give
Where we got it

From my father, from your mother
How we hurt one another, now
Got to stop it

It's not like you're the only one to blame
Throw words like little knives, treat love like it's a game

And after all this time
After all this time
After all this time
After all ...

Baby we both know how to tell a lie
Do you think that just once before we die
We could tell the truth after all this time

And after all this time
After all this time
After all this time
After all ...

And after all this time
After all, after all this time
After all this time
After all this time
