lyrics

do you remember the songs I used to sing while
you would cook in the kitchen of our first house?
when we’d lay on the dinner table and stuff ourselves up
until we’d nearly pop
then you’d get too stoned and fall asleep alone
oh I need that now oh I need that now
do you remember the songs that used to bring us back
from that which was pinning our limbs down?
if you wrote me a note I kept it in the box that we got
from the shop in Chinatown
I don’t know who you see when you look at me now
but look at me now
please look at me now
take all the time you need to catch your breath
settle down the riots in your head
I’ve never been one for patience
but this will pass
this will pass us by
I know I met you status quo of “I told you so”s
in our shared spent couple of years
don’t forget about thrift store Mondays
sappy sitcoms and drive-thru souvenirs
I don’t know what you know but I’ve got nowhere to go now
you are my home now you are my soul now
if you could just stay with me now
if you could just stay with me now
if you could just stay with me now
if you could just stay with me now
if you could just stay with me now
