Average Life

I think I'm about to have an average life

An average job to spend my time

And every night I come to you

I fold the laundry on the bed

And put the socks where socks are meant

And every night I come to you

You teach me love

What did you always used to say

10,000 lakes on Christmas Day

You'll never have to be afraid

Here within my arms

Here within my arms again

Here within my arms

As the golden hour dies

The dogs will hear me coming up the drive

And every night I open doors

And fall into a bed I never made

That I admit and you forgave

And every night I come to you

You teach me

What did you always used to say

10,000 lakes on Christmas Day

You'll never have to be afraid

Here within my arms

Here within my arms again

Here within my arms
