Our friends on the front porch, jokes And they swing swiftly towards times Expending lines and finding energy for the effort And getting distance from that front spotlight
But us, we found in shadows Long enough to see the monsters Candy's got some space to fill in her Living high on lie
Talking to me about some 0% And how she got a better deal than the guy And the way the shocked us When we were And looking down that long highway
Your was longer then and now I remember Oh, the roads by cats They're burning like wet Through my miracle mile
You left your thumbprint me Now for months it But mine only brushes your soft And somehow it me listless
My tongue under my lips, oh yes So I can't speak to you of the months before I met you And the way the truth, it us about the time after the lightning shocked us
When we young and missing that small New England byway Our lives they were sheltered and I now I remember Well it's not even being about anymore
I get you down Those fragments of perfection They please me in a unchanged When it's not the same Or awaited end
If I knew all the I would write myself out of If I was all the I would paint you pretty in in a picture So I'm told, little So now I'm sold, sister
Why don't you tell me The sunsets in And the of Eden And how you the Rock of Gibraltar And how they you Foxy
Well that's whole box of Pandora's That's whole box of them ties your foot off the gas Before we crash right into the median
It our house from the middle of the street Talking about our house is on the porch Telling jokes and they swing towards happier times Expending lines and more energy for the effort
And getting distance that front porch spotlight But us we peace in shadows Long to see a monster die We all need to a little space in our daydreams
Long enough and so long Long enough, just as long, just so As long enough, is it long enough? Is it enough for me? Long enough for me to chew on
If it isn't, if it isn't, if it ain't, if it don't, if it can't it won't And that's the way that it goes
