lyrics

We’ll talk about this in the morning when we’re good and sober
Laugh about this next year when we're good and older
We’ll work next lifetime if we’re somewhat bolder
We’ll work when we gotta and shrug our shoulders

We stayed up late that night
Drinking bottles of red wine
I’ve made the same mistake more than once
And still you’ve stood by me

We’ll laugh about this in the morning when we’re 8 hours older
Talk about this next year when we’re good and sober
We’ll work next lifetime and we’ll be much bolder
We’ll sleep if we can, if we cant, we’ll shrug out shoulders

You called me up that evening
I showed up at your house
Your heavy voice was shaking
And your heart was broken

You deserve all the good, all the good in the world
You deserve every last bit of good in the world

I called you up that evening
I showed up at your door
My heavy heart was breaking
So you held it for me.

The air was thick and hard to breathe
So we moved out to the porch
You said this is the moment of your courage
You will finally sleep at night

I’ve been sleeping at night and dreaming, friend.
You do the same.

The air out here, it is thick and hard to breathe
You can move out to the shore
I said this is the moment of your courage
You can finally start

It's is your long awaited page turn
This is your happy ever after all
You stood by me when few others would
I’ll do the same for you.
