Today's paper can burn in the fire The headline should've stayed Only while we know, the ink will never be dry And applications and resumes pile The deadlines they can wait for a while We took the telephone off the hook Your bedsheets, they tangle like vines And we wake and your feet touch mine, i shake Only cause they're ice cold The avid summers where we swim all night And sleep through the days What a perfect way to spend our time Every watch has got a dead battery Yeah i know, i know, it could be over soon So let's make the best of this humid June The record's spinning an old soul band We dance and twirl and kiss 'til we can't stand up Until i, until i step on your feet Your guts bloom from a canvas in the hall Half-finished paintings can wait on the wall, until Until it's time to repaint them Even if all the birds start a song Upstairs we're sleeping at six in the morning You know we'll be humming along The avid summers where we swim all night And sleep through the days Oh what a perfect way to waste our time Every clock has lost its chime and pace Cause every tourist wants a souvenir Just to say "baby, we were here" And all i want when you and i part ways Is to know we never had any fears I can see it in your eyes That you're scared out of your mind Listen to me when i say that your future-sick(?) I know what you don't wanna hear Like a pistol shot ringing for years Listen to me when i say that you're future-sick(?) If the world's a (?) of lies Let the burden be mine, all mine Until you know it's time to rethink things
