Two Different Things Lyrics - Little Big Town

1 (Gary Burr/Hillary Lindsey/Bruce Bouton)

2 When you know you don't need the time to talk about it

3 When you hear your heart say you'll be fine without it

4 It's hard to find the strength to fight a battle you're not in

5 From the outside, we appear to be the way we've always been

6 How I look and how I feel, what I'm told and what is real

7 That's two different things

8 What they ask and what I'll pay, what I think and what I say

9 That's two different things

10 It isn't kind, it isn't fair

11 I have to draw the line somewhere

12 And face the tears that it brings

13 Cause what you've got and what I need

14 Is two different things

15 Don't you see we've been nothing but a grand illusion

16 Pardon me if I show the world the tricks we're using

17 Well I'm the first to tell you now that half the blame is mine

18 We can keep pretending that tomorrow we'll be fine

19 How I look and how I feel, what I'm told and what is real

20 That's two different things

21 What they ask and what I'll pay, what I think and what I say

22 That's two different things

23 It isn't kind, it isn't fair

24 I have to draw the line somewhere

25 And face the tears that it brings

26 Cause what you've got and what I need

27 Is two different things

28 Everything you offer me should make me turn and stay

29 But black is white and wrong is right

30 It's hard to live that way

31 How I look and how I feel, what I'm told and what is real

32 That's two different things

33 What they ask and what I'll pay, what I think and what I say

34 That's two different things

35 It isn't kind, it isn't fair

36 I have to draw the line somewhere

37 And face the tears that it brings

38 Cause what you've got and what I need

39 Is two different things

40 Cause what you've got and what I need

41 Is two different things

42 Two different things

43 Two different things
