lyrics

Sit awhile with me
Count the windows on the houses in the park
Sit awhile with me
We’ll come here to this park bench every Saturday around this time
Sit awhile with me, and make connections between houses
And the roads they’re on

Colored lights and candles
Fights and Choirs floating from the windowsills
Pictures of a livelihood, and any one can be our own
Sit awhile with me
And pick a life that we could lead
If you would have me

We reach the door of our own story and you buzz me in
For better, we don’t know the worse for wear, we’re jumping in
We pull each other off our ledges when the night is young
We look not down upon ourselves, but to the rising sun

We pull each other off our ledges when the night is young
We look not down upon ourselves, but to the rising sun

She made me eat the food you’re only supposed to finish when you’re sad
When you’re sad,
When you’re…
