[Verse 1]
Well, we really did it this time
Like we've never done before
We're so busy with our points of view
That can't see clear anymore

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess I said some things
I didn't mean
And you walked out the door

[Chorus]
Oh, look as the mess we made, Thea
Just look at the mess we made, Althea
Just look at the mess we made, Thea, my love

[Verse 2]
On one hand it don't seem worth it
All this fussin' gets so old
Yet I can't believe how lonely I get
When you're not around to hold

[Pre-Chorus]
How can people so in love
Keep this up?
I really don't know
[Chorus]
Oh, look as the mess we made, Thea
Just look at the mess we made, Althea
Just look at the mess we made, Thea, my love

[Bridge]
Oh, darlin', look what we're doin'
It seems like such a lie
Oh, darlin', we could be through with it
If we'd only try

[Verse 3]
Yet we keep on playin' righteous
Like two spoiled kids in school
And we'll keep on makin' messes, I guess
For as long as we stay fools

[Pre-Chorus]
But even if we never change
Just the same (I'll always love you)
I will always love you (I'll always love you)

[Chorus]
Oh, but look as the mess we made, Thea
Just look at the mess we made, Althea
Just look at the mess we made, Althea
[Interlude]
Children that we are (Children that we are)
We keep breaking things apart

[Chorus]
Look at the mess we made, Thea
Just look at the mess we made, Althea
Just look at the mess we made, Thea, my love

[Outro]
Children that we are
We keep breaking things apart
Just look at the mess we made
Look at the mess we made, Althea
