[Verse 1: Bernard Sumner] I've been walking in the rain Just to get wet on purpose I've been forcing myself not to forget Just to feel worse [Pre-Chorus: Bernard Sumner and Neil Tennant ] I've been getting away with it all my life (Getting away) [Chorus: Bernard Sumner and Neil Tennant] However I look it's clear to see That I love you more than you love me However I look it's clear to see I love you more than you love me [Verse 2: Bernard Sumner] I hate that mirror It makes me feel so worthless I'm an original sinner but when I'm with you I couldn't care less [Pre-Chorus: Bernard Sumner and Neil Tennant ] I've been getting away with it all my life (Getting away with it) Getting away with it all my life (Getting away) [Chorus: Bernard Sumner and Neil Tennant] However I look it's clear to see That I love you more than you love me However I look it's clear to see That I love you more than you love me I love you more than you love me More than you love me [Bridge: Bernard Sumner and Neil Tennant] I thought I gave up falling in love A long long time ago I guess I like it but I can't tell you You shouldn't really know And it's been true All my life Yes, it's been true All my life [Verse 3: Bernard Sumner and Neil Tennant] I've been talking to myself Just to suggest that I'm selfish (Getting ahead) I've been trying to impress That more is less and I'm repressed (I should do what he said) [Chorus: Bernard Sumner and Neil Tennant] However I look it's clear to see That I love you more than you love me However I look it's clear to see That I love you more than you love me I love you more than you love me I love you more than you love me [Outro: Neil Tennant] Getting away with it Getting away with it
