lyrics

I’m just no fun anymore, I’m confused
And I whistle like my grandpa being shipped off to world war 2
like I’m always dreaming ‘stead of doing what I oughta do
I’ve got a button cute dolly and a record player to come home to

I’m not a man on a mission, a man of strong conviction
I don’t believe I’m fishing for a cure for my condition
I love my laugh but my luck won’t last very long
and all our plans won’t go how we want them to
but if you stick with me, I’ll stick with you
through every lousy paradise
from my dangerous lows to my almighty highs
until we’re both middle aged and hate our lives…

I will come to your door and I will sing your kids to sleep
and we will sit on your porch smoking a half a pack digging up the secrets we keep far below me
Are you still lonely?
Do you still feel the Void creeping in the cracks of broken dreams dead inside you? Like I do…

You know, I would be nothing without you
Because I would be nothing without you
You know, I would be nothing without you
Because I would be nothing without you
