Sweet ordinary morning
A quiet grace, a stillness fills the air
Can you see oh the desperate kind of beauty
In the sky where we left our parachutes behind
Don't you dare be afraid
Because I'm here to stay
You brought me to life
But this life ain't for surviving
This life is for living
Bars spilling out into exultant streets
Where the young and reckless dance to music ringing in their ears
We can play our records for the whole damn town
Through the empty windows of our cars
Though the light pollution, feel the stars
Don't you dare be afraid
Because I'm here to stay
You brought me to life
But this life ain't for surviving
When the rain beats down the roof over our heads
We both know that we can swim
And revel in the chaos of it
All I do is look in your eyes
And I see that beautiful midnight sky
So hold me tight
We'll be a cliff against a raging sea and the terror of its might
My home is in your eyes
We'll be alone but never lonely in the splendour of the night
We'll be alone but never lonely
It's you and me
It's you and me
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
