Lyrics

Making shadow puppets on the ceiling
And the feeling
Of your body lying naked
Next to mine
The summer night’s intoxicating
Exhilarating
As we lie in bed
And talk all night
Once upon a time we met
And things were just like this
But then the days turned into years
And we forget

So won’t you lay with me
Like this is the first time
Anticipation blows your mind
And we could make believe
That this is not your house
But you’re not going home tonight
Yeah let’s pretend we just began
And do it all again

We live our life in such a pattern
Repeating habits
We could go for days
Without one kiss
And it’s not that we
Feel differently
Than the day we professed our love
On that park bench
It’s just the nature of the game
To forget about from where we came
And take for granted all the things
That we’d most miss

People live their lives like they’ve been lived
Like their youth is gone and nothing’s left
But to sit around and wait for death
Well darling that’s not us
The best is yet to come
