Through the Streets of This Town

Lover, please be patient
We got so much time ahead
To plant your roses where they can grow
And build a place you can call home
Because I know we’re gonna remember
The dust we wiped off this floor
And the candles that lit up our small room
And the blooming we waited for
But I will walk through the streets of this town
A child that hangs to your gowns wherever you might go
And I’ll cross these soaking wet streets, you know
The ocean floods through our shore and I’ll drown
Lover, please be quiet
We got so many wars ahead
We spent our days building promises
That we never made
And now I know that outside my window
Well, there’s not such a great view
But what you see is way more than you think
When it brings me next to you
And I will walk through the streets of this town
A child that hangs to your gowns wherever you might go
And we’ll cross the soaking wet streets we know
The ocean floods through our shore and we’ll drown
