Livin' a Life with You

كلمات الأغنية

[Verse 1] I still remember that September rain You dropped your books beside the windowpane I picked them up, you laughed and said my name And nothing in my world was quite the same We walked three blocks beneath your borrowed coat You drew a little heart beside a note At your front door, neither one would go Two nervous hands found somewhere safe to hold [Pre-Chorus] The whole world waited down the avenue But all I saw was me and you [Chorus] Livin' a life with you, that's all I ever wanted From the first hello to every morning after When the years get heavy and the road gets rough I would be a mess without you, love Livin' a life with you, through every changing season Your hand in mine is all the proof I need If forever's just a thousand small things we do Then forever starts and ends with you [Verse 2] We kissed beneath the kitchen clock at night While your old radio played soft and low You wore my sweater, I turned out the light And watched the moon move slowly down the wall Then came the apartment with the crooked stairs A crib assembled wrong, but we didn't care You fell asleep with crayons in your hair I learned that joy can look like folding chairs [Pre-Chorus] We missed some trains, we broke a plate or two Still every road came back to you [Chorus] Livin' a life with you, that's all I ever wanted From the first hello to every morning after When the years get heavy and the road gets rough I would be a mess without you, love Livin' a life with you, through every changing season Your hand in mine is all the proof I need If forever's just a thousand small things we do Then forever starts and ends with you [Bridge] One day we'll watch our children leave the driveway With their own keys and their own dreams to chase You'll lean your silver head against my shoulder And I'll still know the shape of your face [Saxophone Solo] [Final Chorus] Livin' a life with you, that's more than I imagined Every scar and smile, every hard-won answer When the years get heavy and the road gets rough I would be a mess without you, love Livin' a life with you, when our hands are older I'll pull you close like I did that night And if the last thing that these tired eyes see is you I've lived the finest life I ever knew [Outro] That September rain, that borrowed coat Two young hearts learning what they know Livin' a life with you Still the only dream I want to hold
