We were teachers in the east
Days were hot and food was cheap
That was the first time and I hope it's not the last time
That I spend Each moment I have with you
Before A teacher I was a sailor
I lived my life out on the sea
That was a dark time and I promise it's the last time that I put
An ocean in between
Through it all you're in my corner
You're the cornerstone I need
In separate homes its been much harder
To keep up with love
But we've held a steady beat
Oh... I'm a dreamer in my bones
Cut the numbers man I'm not logistical
Oh... it doesn't matter where we go
As long as I've got you I'll call any place my home
Let's move out into the city
Rent a place where two can sleep
And if our pockets show resistance then at least we've cut the distance
And it's worth it to spend each moment I have with you
Through it all you're in my corner
You're the cornerstone I need
When they ask how we'll afford it
Just laugh, because love
Was never built for a salary
Oh... I'm a dreamer in my bones
Cut the numbers man I'm not logistical
Oh... it doesn't matter where we go
As long as I've got you I'll call any place my home
You're the cornerstone I need
Oh... I'm a dreamer in my bones
Cut the numbers man I'm not logistical
Oh... it doesn't matter where we go
As long as I've got you I'll call any place my home
We were teachers in the East...
Days were long and rent was cheap
That was the first time and I know it's not the last time
That I'll spend Each moment I have with you
Each moment I have with you
