Every morning beside my head
You put your shoes on and then
Every evening you come back to me
The world is outside waiting for us to be separated

It's not their fault
They'd follow footsteps into the dark
Oh, I remember what it felt to find the light
It still shines brightly for you after all this time

Oh, I remember when I told you
To stay and let's talk all night
I wanted to hold you
I wanted to know you
I wanted you to stay the night
So in the morning when you awoke
Beside your head you would find a rose
That I left for you to thank you for the night
It didn't happen that way
But that's alright

Oh, I remember when I told you
To stay and let's talk all night
I wanted to hold you
I wanted to know you
I wanted you to stay the night
So in the morning when you awoke
Beside your head you would find a rose
That I left for you to thank you for the night
It didn't happen that way
But that's alright

Every morning, beside my head
You put your shoes on, and then
Every evening, you come back to me
The world is outside waiting for us to leave
The world is outside waiting, so just let them be
The world is outside waiting, waiting for me
