Gary DeMichele - Complicated (Acoustic) Lyrics

Remember how it started well
With ribbons, cake and chiming bells
It felt just like a fairy tale
As we said forever
And as we left the hall that night
The moon and the stars were our delight
But even the heavens' hallowed light
Won't last forever
Love, it's complicated
Love, once the daylight's faded
Shadows climb our walls and make it
Complicated
Love, you were a trusted friend
Don't leave me here to begin again
It's just this little mess I'm in
And it's complicated
Heroes, artists, me and you
Ready to build our something new
Thought the pretty pictures that we drew
Would last forever
But questions were your favorite art
And the scaffolding soon fell apart
Can heroes finish what they start
If it takes forever
Love, it's complicated
Love, once the daylight's faded
Shadows climb our walls and make it
Complicated
Love, you were a trusted friend
Don't leave me here to begin again
It's just this little mess I'm in
And it's complicated
Now I don't believe in fairy tales
'Cause flowers die and heroes fail
I see it babe around me all the time
We went wandering from our neighborhood
Through a dark and foggy wood
Tell me what'd we ever hope to find
Is it a choice that's yours and mine
And so here we are just like the start
The two of us and our work of art
Just another mystery of the heart
That goes on forever
But no one knows me like you do
And girl you know it's the same for you
So be with me and I'll be with you
Now and forever
Love, it's complicated
Love, once the daylight's faded
Shadows climb our walls and make it
Complicated
Love, you were a trusted friend
Don't leave me here to begin again
It's just this little mess I'm in
And it's complicated
I don't believe in fairy tales
'Cause flowers die and heroes fail
And love it ain't no fairy tale
It's complicated
I don't believe in fairy tales
'Cause flowers die and heroes fail
And love it ain't no fairy tale
It's complicated
