Every Beat of Every Song

Just talking

As life goes by

Only lovers know

What to do when the will's all gone

All these things that I was going to say

Got lost somewhere on their way to my mouth

All those words that I was going to pray

Got stolen by songs against this drought

Only you, real loving, told me

I'm not the same you fell for

But that's ok I'll be the woman

Ok, I'll make you a man

All these plans that I set for myself

Got thrown out the minute she was born

I set some others for ourselves

I realized they weren't much different than before

Whatever we decided

I got a feeling we're right where we belong

Dismissing this static

I can feel her in every beat of every song

Only you, real loving, told me

I'm not the one to care for

But that's ok I'll be a mother

Ok, you'll be the dad

I'm done feeling like the loneliest man alive

My heart is gone fearing all goodbyes

My heart helloes shedding its disguise

As her body's known true sacrifice
