Lyrics People Like Us - The von Trapps

People Like Us

How could I tell you the truth
When I myself don’t even have a clue
Of what I feel, of what I want from you
Of what I feel, of what I want from you
We are careful in our springtime
We’re young in years but we are old in our minds
Perhaps our souls are from some ancient time?
Still looking for what they still can’t find
And I know that I don’t want to risk you
But I don’t know of any other way
And we don’t have any answers
But we listen when the older people say
People like us know better than to trust
We choose to believe and set ourselves free
Love is a dangerous game
Yet, all the same, I know the only way
Is to be brave, to be unafraid
To live love and life day by day
People like us know better than to trust
We choose to believe and let ourselves bleed
Cuz' love is a dangerous game
Yet, all the same, I know the only way
Is to be brave, to be unafraid
To live love and life day by day
And you know, no matter how this ends
In my heart, I will remain your friend
And If I hurt you it’s cause I won’t pretend
But I will comprehend and I’ll defend you
And for those who walk the weary road
Who can’t rely on which way the wind will blow
Who face our heart the depths they’ll never know
Forgive us if we fear, what we may owe
And it’s funny how people keep changing
Like the cosmos, we’re circling around
Sometimes we wind up together
But sometimes we just come undone
People like us know better than to trust
We choose to believe and set ourselves free
Cuz' love is a dangerous game
Yet, all the same, I know the only way
Is to be brave, to be unafraid
To live love and life day by day
People like us know better than to trust
We choose to believe and let ourselves bleed
Love is a dangerous game
Yeah, all the same, I know the only way
Is to be brave, to be unafraid
To live love and life day by day
