Like Them

You cracked the curtains
Put on my shirt and
Lay in the morning sun

You looked so perfect
My head was a circus
Wondering if it was love

I remember thinking
We would be different
We'd never live like them

We could hear them fighting
Every other night the
Tears were rolling down her chin

Oh I said we'd never be like them

We'll be
Laughing until we're old
We
Don't need a precious stone
We'll
Be watching the sunset
Hoping it never ends

All through that summer
You were my lover
We were living in a dream

I went off the deep end
Waiting for the weekend
Knowing you'd be there with me

I remember thinking
As the sun was sinking
I'd be happy if I died

Laying right beside you
Looking in your eyes I
Didn't have a thing to hide

Oh I said we'd never be like them

We'll be
Laughing until we're old
We
Don't need a precious stone
We'll
Be watching the sunset
Hoping it never ends
