Light us a candle, put your records on
I'll kiss you after your favorite song on The Wall
Light us a candle, put your records on
you were right there all along
Light us a candle, put your records on
kiss me tonight, your favorite song

I learned today
that your lips are as soft as your eyes are grey
I decided I'd learn your face
From the folds in your eyes
to the five different smiles you make
We'll get caught in the middle of it all
Fall in love just a little, start to fall
I don't love you a little
I love you so much dear
I learned a thing
that your kisses taste better at night in the rain
I'm gonna buys us a plane
and fly down to Memphis and take you away
I think something inside of me changed
like the way that your hand touching mine must be fate
and I might be going away
but I don't think that'll change one goddamn thing
We'll get caught in the middle of it all
Fall in love just a little, start to fall
I don't love you a little
I love you so much dear

Jesus was talking to me
telling me it's all a dream
I'm breaking down space with my hands
closed smiles and wise eyes in demand
maybe I've lost it today
not that that makes any change
maybe this is when I'll go home
or just when you'll leave me alone
'cause I don't have anything clever to say
nothing to make things okay
nothing to bring about change
so hold me tonight as I cry in your arms
you're kissing my eyes and I've never felt this helpless before
but I don't mind, I don't pry, I don't try to change anything
why try and change everything?
I'll be right here when I need
or happily drowned in the sea
away from the bustle and cars
I think next time I'll go to mars
and dig for ten years in the dirt
'til I can't tell truth from the hurt
'cause I don't have anything clever to say
nothing to make things okay
nothing to bring about change
so hold me tonight as I cry in your arms
you're kissing my eyes and I've never felt this helpless before
but I don't mind, I don't pry, I don't try to change anything
why try and change everything?
so everything won't change like it does

Eastbound 40 toward Nashville was butterflies and broken wings
You taught me how to mend them, goddamnit you taught me everything
Westbound connection through Denver, we lost our calm to turbulence
and I met you at the airport, with open arms, a pack of Kamel Reds
we were careful, always
careful, always
careful, always
careful, always
I was on the western side and where were you that day?
I tried to hard to sort it out, 'cause I was so afraid
So lend me your hand and I won't say, what I'm about to say
we were careful, always
careful, always
careful, always
careful, always
I won't go
I won't stay?
I won't go.
You can't stay
You can't stay
I was on the western side, and where were you that day?
we were careful, always
careful, always
careful, always
careful, always

Your Song

You told me you were scared of me leaving
you cried so hard, looked like you were grieving
said goodbye, I love you and I'll see you soon
By the time we made it through the winter
by the time our trip was done in December
we both changed but our love stayed the same
you said I got a new way of living
and it don't no it don't have you in it
you told me you wanted to get married
I said of course dear you asked if I'd carry
you over the threshold to our beautiful home
2014 one time you got distracted
you said I really wish that this could have lasted
but I'm done, I love you but enough is enough
you said I got a new way of living
and it don't no it don't have you in it

Falls

Gotta get me out of the city
gotta get me out of losing teeth
gotta get me into something better
I know, I know, things are hard before they're easy
while I was breaking falls
I wasn't there at all
while I was breaking falls
I wasn't there at all
I think about someone with you
I think about his love
I think about someone with you
Sinking into you from above
while I was breaking falls
I wasn't there at all
while I was breaking falls
I wasn't there at all

Outro
05:27

|
we were just fools for it all
you let your hair down, we let ourselves fall
we went out and drowned the hallowed ground
the rain touched our skin, washed us clean, and it deepend the spell
the tangles of you hair on unmade sheets
a kiss on your neck, you show me your sleepy teeth
I'm sure you made good on all your other promises
it was an accident I made or something that I said
cuz when we changed things I think I should have called it off
maybe that was the last night our love wasn't lost
you told me there's only two different kinds of rain
one to wash you clean and what we have today
but the calm was gone before I left for long
you'd wait say that you felt betrayed say you felt so lost
I bled for twenty hours yesterday
I fought flesh, crying, sappy, so ashamed
I miss us in Seattle in the rain
but that started fading as soon as I left the state
I moved close to Tennessee before you fell in love
but we were still states away and I knew it wasn't enough
it's still hard to love your love when it's not my own
I'm still learning to love your love when it's not my own
find someone new
but why do you always get in the way?
I'm still learning to love your love when it's not the same
find someone new
but why do you always get in the way?
I'm still learning to love your love when it's not the same
find someone new
but why do you always get in the way?
I'm still learning to love your love when it's not the same
find someone new
but why do you always get in the way?
I'm still learning to love your love when it's not the same
I'm still learning to love your love when it's not the same
I think I might have learned to love your love today
I think I might have learned to love your love today
