Close the door
Take off your coat
Just pretend for a minute
That we have an hour to spare before we go
And just be close
Switch off your day
Unpack your soul
Just sit down next to me a while
And concentrate on nothing much at all
Just let it fall
We could pound on without mercy
Always hungry, always thirsting
For the next big thing we're working on
To maybe give us treasure beyond counting
Cresting every hill to find another one before us
On our long and tiring journey up this mountain
Or we could lie here like we used to
Dreaming of our future
One that looks like now
If only we could see it in the way we used to
We could stay here
We could stay here
We could stay here
In the end, it's as we wish
Even when it seems we're forced to live this kind of life
In fact, the choices still exist
It's just we choose this
We could be free of all this stuff
We don't have to be the best, or even good
We just need to be good enough
Just good enough
We could pound on without mercy
Always hungry, always thirsting
For the next big thing we're working on
To maybe give us treasure beyond counting
Cresting every hill to find another one before us
On our long and tiring journey up this mountain
Or we could lie here like we used to
Dreaming of our future
One that looks like now
If only we could see it in the way we used to
We could stay here
Just stay here
We could stay here
We could stay here (lie here like we used to)
Just stay here (dreaming of our future)
We could stay here
We could stay here
We could stay here
We could stay here
