From the recording Bird of Passage
Lyrics
I’ve been sleeping on a tight rope with you
Driving with the lights out just to try to feel alive
I know it’s not sustainable
Mountain biking with our arms out, no hands
Honestly I hate how no one understands why I can’t let you go,
I wish we were sustainable
But it’s OK if they don’t remember us
It’s OK if we let our love turn to dust
It’s OK if we gotta be a memory
We better make it strong
I’ll write it down, keep you around in this song
You’re the adrenaline inside my veins
Every moment I can steal is worth the pain just to be with you
Eyes like a July afternoon
I always take it to the extreme with you
I may never know what it means that I do
I won’t fight the end no more
but sometimes I wonder if we are what we’re searching for
But it’s OK if they don’t remember us
It’s OK if we let our love turn to dust
It’s OK if we gotta be a memory
We better make it strong
I’ll write it down, keep you around in this song
Probably you shouldn’t be holding me,
but in the world aren’t there just some things like
Like maybe we’re just victims of gravity
Fall into a bed of roses and the thorns are killing me
I should want April showers but you’re April snow
I should want to want
a life where things can grow
But it’s OK if they don’t remember us
It’s OK if we let our love turn to dust
It’s OK if we gotta be a memory
We better make it strong
I’ll write it down, keep you around in this song
It goes ooo, It goes ooo
It goes ooo, It goes ooo
la la ooo la la oh
