Jason Mraz - 0% Interest lyrics

Our friends on the front porch, well they're telling jokes and they swing swiftly towards happier times Expending lines and finding more energy for the effort and getting distance from that front porch spotlight But us we found peace in shadows, long enough to see the monsters rise Candy's got some space to fill in her daydream living high on yesterday's lies Talking to me about some 0% interest and, how she got a better deal than the next guy And the way the lightning shocked us when we were lost and we were looking Down that long Missouri highway your hair was longer then and now I can remember Say now I remember oh so well Oh the roads unencumbered by cats they're burning like wet matches through my miracle mile mind You left your thumbprint inside me now for months it seems but mine only brushes your soft surface And somehow Somehow it leaves me listless, my tongue curls under my lips oh oh yes So I can't speak to tell you of the months before I met you And the way, oh the truth it locked us Oh right about the time after the lightning shocked us When we were young, when we were young and missing Round that small New England byway our lives they were sheltered then and now I can remember Say now well I remember oh so well, almost too well Well its not even being about that anymore I gotta get you down Those tiny fragments of perfection they please me in a time Unchanged when its not the same beginning or along awaited end... If I knew all the words I would write myself out of here If I was all the colors I would paint you pretty in gold in a picture, so I'm told little sister So now I'm sold little sister Why don't you tell me about the sunsets in Sweden and the laws of Eden And how you were the rock of Gibraltar, and how they called you foxy Well that's another whole box of pandora's, that's another whole box of them ties Slide your foot off the gas before we crash right back into the median Right back into the median, the median lo-oh It separates, our house from the middle of the street... It separates our house from the middle of the street Talking about our house Is on the front porch telling jokes and they swing swiftly towards happier times Expending lines and finding more energy for the effort and getting distance from that front porch Spotlight But us we found peace in shadows long enough to see a monster die. We all need to find a little space in our daydreams long enough and just so long. Long enough, just as long, just so long as its long enough is it long enough? Is it long enough for me? Long enough for me to chew on. If it isn't... if it isn't .. if it ain't if it don't if it can't then it wont. And that's just the way that it goes.
