Why don’t you
Settle down
Why don’t you
Settle down

Make yourself at home
I left the front porch light on
Dinner’s on the table
But I won’t be back before the dawn
We made our beds now we sleep alone
Only argue on the telephone
From the outside seems nothing’s wrong
But inside we’re fighting to leave
There’s no fight only flee

Why don’t you
Settle down
Why don’t you
Settle down
We've been lying to ourselves
Trying to be someone else
Why don’t you
Settle down

I remember when
You used to be my best friend
When we were honest
And not trying to break each other again
But we grew up and we grew apart
We had a hell of a change of heart
Now's our chance for another start
We can leave and finally be free
So let go, let go of me

Why don’t you
Settle down
Why don’t you
Settle down
We've been lying to ourselves
Trying to be someone else
Why don’t you
Settle down

Oh we did what we were told
Find someone and grow old
It's okay, nothing's perfect in the end
But you can make a wrong thing right
Goes to hell you just sit tight
We're okay, we can just play pretend

Why don’t you
Settle down
Why don’t you
Settle down
We've been lying to ourselves
Trying to be someone else
Let's stop lying to ourselves
We're not meant to settle down
