Go back where we started when the sun was angled right

Men you'd see on TV screens were me in the same light

You were my reminder in this colder, corner state

Of the brightness others aim for well outside the gray

The ground we're on keeps shifting but our steps still stay in time

For all the ways I've missed my aim I know loving you is right

Now I hear your whisper in this colder, corner room

There's nothing easy in this moment and nothing more to do

All along we've known the way these conversations end

You can't deny the shore its tide or sermons their amen

It's just as well we tell ourselves there's not so much to lose

But I would trade ten thousand days for one more hour with you

All along we've known the way these conversations end

You can't deny the shore its tide or sermons their amen

It's just as well we tell ourselves there's not so much to lose

But I would trade ten thousand days for one more hour with you

We push and pull and give our all to never know for sure

But I try to see the way I bleed as proof enough for me

Because the truth's a thing a cashier rings up on quiet afternoons

We take it home, we make our own and throw out what we don't use

All along we've known the way these conversations end

You can't deny the shore its tide or sermons their amen

It's just as well we tell ourselves there's not so much to lose

But I would trade ten thousand days for one more hour with you
