I just brushed my teeth you know what that means
|
A mouth full of foam and your staring at me
|
I'm singing in your voice I've been practicing
|
Hoping one day that your the real thing
|
|
And maybe you'd actually stand next to me
|
Spit on the back of my neck while I'm leaning in the sink
|
You laugh at me when I kiss your cheek
|
If you'd let me...
|
|
Now we have our plan, you giggled in your hands
|
You tried to convince me that the sounds in the trees
|
Footsteps in the woods, monsters up to no good
|
I'll take first watch if you'll promise to sleep next to me
|
So I can learn your face with my hands
|
Just in case we never meet again
|
At least Ill have this memory
|
If you'd let me...
|
|
I'm working on the floor of our majestic tree fort
|
You know... The one where we live away from everyone else
|
If were gonna keep them out we should find a taller tree
|
Move to the top where no one can see
|
We'll need thicker walls and a permanent guard but for now
|
it's your turn to watch and it's my turn to sleep
|
|
Then it hit me, this whole time I've been asleep
|
And you were never even next to me it was just a dream
|
So I'll stay asleep and meet you in dreams
|
If you'd let me
|
|
If you'd let me...
|
If you'd let me....
|
