lyrics

I miss the rain sometimes
When I'm alone and dry
But if a life could be as perfect as an hour
We'd no need for sunlight
I drove a hundred miles
2 hours and fewer friends
House overflowing with inside jokes
But you smiled at me instead

(she said)

You only get so far before you fall
And I've fallen far this time
Kiss me between the bars I'll be fine
I'll help you count the stars tonight
Before you go
Back to sleep
Lalalalalalalalalalalala
Lalalalalalalala

This talk of running away
A never ending escape
And everywhere we flee grows green grass
Till we've made it back round
I found there's nothing new to see
I miss the clouds sometimes
When everything's gone quiet
And all that's left is the soft reassurance
That the world weighs more than I can lift

(just grab my hands and move your feet)

You only get so far before you fall
And I've fallen far this time
Kiss me between the bars I'll be fine
I'll be up in the stars tonight
Before you go
Back to sleep
Lalalalalalalalalalalala
Lalalalalalalala
