The Story Of Yo La Tango

We stared at the sun, too long until the shapes before our eyes turned into the sun, in our eyes

We lied to ourselves for awhile in our usual style

I wish we could ride

To ourselves again

We made up our minds to lose and never once looked back

We only looked back just once

We opened our hearts, it's true

But not to any of you

Sold out of the myth too soon

And we tried, we tried with all our might

We tore the playhouse down

We ran headlong in our way

We tried so hard

We stared at the road ahead

Closed our eyes and then sped up to the turn, around the bend

With nothing to lose, we lost

Suffered every cost

It still causes pain to calm

And we tried, we tried with all our might

We tore the playhouse down

We ran headlong in our way

We tried so hard

And we tried, we tried with all our might

We tore the playhouse down

We ran headlong in our way

We tried so hard

And we tried, we tried with all our might

We tore the playhouse down

And we ran headlong in our way

We tried so hard

Refused to let go of the air

There was something there

Sparks foam with gold

A million strong and match forever lights in a row

I'm still flushed from the glow

I'm down on the road back home

We stared at the sun, too long until the shapes before our eyes turned back into the sun, into the sun in our eyes

We lied to ourselves for awhile in our usual style

Now I wish we could ride, we wish we could lie to ourselves again

And we tried, we tried, we tried with all our might we tore the playhouse down

We ran headlong, headlong in our way... we tried so hard... we tried so hard... yeah we tried so hard...
