Nate Ruess - On Your Porch lyrics

I was on your porch, the smoke sank into my skin So I came inside to be with you And we talked all night About everything we could imagine Cause come the morning I'll be gone And as our eyes start to close I turn to you and I let you know that I Love You Well my dad was sick And my mom she cared for him Her love it nursed him back to life And me, I ran. I couldn't even look at him For fear I'd have to say goodbye And as I start to leave He grabs me by the shoulder and he tells me: "Whats left to lose? You've done enough And if you fail well then you fail but not to us Cause these last three years, I know they've been hard But now its time to get out of the desert and into the sun; Even if its alone." So now here I sit, in a hotel off of Sunset; My thoughts bounce off of Sam's guitar And that's the way its been Ever since we were kids but now Now we've got Something to prove And I, I can see there eyes But tell me something, can they see mine? Cause whats left to lose? I've done enough And if I fail well then I fail but i gave it a shot And these last three years, I know they've been hard But now its time to get out of the desert and into the sun; Even if its alone Even if it's alone [x3] I was on your porch last night, the smoke it sank into my skin
