Sam Tsui - Naive

These days, they say
Nothing lasts the way it should
Only fools think
There's a point in trusting something good
Call me crazy
But I can't keep you off my mind
It's hopeless, they say
We should know better, best we never
Try to forget what we've learned to believe
But I say

Let's be naive
If it's the only way to keep from breaking
Let's make believe that things never change
Hold on to me
And bury the doubts away beneath my heartbeat
If wisdom says we should be walking away
I'd rather be naive

Careful, jaded
And always bracing for the fall
That's no way to love, babe
But there was a time before we'd seen it
All falling down, can we trust what we see?
Cause I say

Let's be naive
If it's the only way to keep from breaking
Let's make believe that things never change
Hold on to me
And bury the doubts away beneath my heartbeat
If wisdom says we should be walking away
I'd rather be naive

And maybe we're headed for a heartbreak
But we've got to let that go
They say that we're skating on fables
Just waiting to tell us, "I told you so"
But I say love is simple, but what do I know?
Let's be naive (naive, naive), yeah

Let's be naive
If it's the only way to keep from breaking
Let's make believe that things never change
Hold on to me
And bury the doubts away beneath my heartbeat
If wisdom says we should be walking away
I'd rather be naive
