Lyrics

Ten years running on a treadmill
Standing still keeping voices low at the dinner table
Your dad asks why I haven't found a girl yet
I look at you we hold a breath we haven't exhaled yet
Living in the shadows of a just good friends charade
While my heart is beating drums in a silent parade
We signed the papers on a Tuesday afternoon
No party no rice just us and the moon

And I drive back to my place you drive back to yours
Two different lives behind two different doors
The world thinks we're lonely that we sleep alone
But they don't see the messages flooding the phone

We don't need a house on a hill to be home
I'm yours in the quiet I'm yours to the bone
Let them keep the daylight we own the night
As long as I'm with you the rest is alright
Yeah as long as I'm with you the rest is alright

Weekend bag hidden in the trunk of the car
Driving forty minutes just to be where you are
Hotel rooms feel like cathedrals to me
Cause that's the only place where we get to be free
I hate saying goodbye when the sun starts to rise
Hiding the ring in my pocket putting on a disguise
But that moment we touch
Yeah it's worth all the years
Worth all the hiding the silence the fears

So I drive back to my place you drive back to yours
Still got separate keys for separate doors
But the vow that we made is tattooed on my mind
A love like this is the impossible kind

We don't need a house on a hill to be home
I'm yours in the quiet I'm yours to the bone
Let them keep the daylight we own the night
As long as I'm with you the rest is alright
Yeah as long as I'm with you the rest is alright

Some people wake up and take it for granted
The coffee the kisses the life that they planted
But we steal the seconds we cherish the crumbs
Making a symphony out of the hums
We're married in spirit we're married in truth
Even if we lost the best years of our youth

We don't need a house on a hill to be home
I'm yours in the quiet I'm yours to the bone
Let them keep the daylight we own the night
As long as I'm with you the rest is alright
Yeah as long as I'm with you the rest is alright
