Waltzing around the house,
Just us two

Barefoot on the cold hardwood
But warmed by each other's hearts

Our world, set aloft in a box
The house of cards, stacked against us

It rains here when we want it to,
Under the covers,
Just us two
A fire going, growing tenfold

Even in the distance, the sirens play their song
But with you by my side,
It won't be very long

So we sleep in each other's arms, or back to back
Lulled by each other's silence
