lyrics

I live for moments three weeks in that can't contain our crack-toothed grins
The joy of rants and joint tirades, forgotten songs from mixtape trades

Trying again to be more than friends
More than distant inspiration or phone calls after 2 a.m,
we're trying again, a little more each weekend
Going gigs and letting guard down
Gently chipping inhibitions away

On dull damp weekday mornings float to work on each other's stories
A new pace to our pulse, sleep-deprived, invincible.
A tired theme, but such fresh desire.
A tired theme, but such fresh desire.

Now we're sharing the same mess
of clothes and books and bed sheets, family stress and secrets
Trying again not to give up when our newness starts to fade or struggle
with the outside world and its demands

Torrential Tuesday evenings entertained inside the feeling
we're speaking our own language and there's something new to say

On Sunday's we can stay within utensil shapes and record spin
Tell each other everything like we're desert island discs or something
Wonder at our grey hair, embrace the coming schmaltz.
