Waltzing around the house,
Just us twoBarefoot on the cold hardwood
But warmed by each other's heartsOur world, set aloft in a box
The house of cards, stacked against usIt rains here when we want it to,
Under the covers,
Just us two
A fire going, growing tenfoldEven in the distance, the sirens play their song
But with you by my side,
It won't be very longSo we sleep in each other's arms, or back to back
Lulled by each other's silence
