Paper Route - You And I Lyrics




I waited for you
I'm a photograph on your floor
That you found in your bedroom
Now you wish you could ignore
All my desperate words fall
I am the sound of a dead language I know
I waited for you
I'm everything you were before

I'm shooting arrows and I wear your pin
But there's nothing left here to believe in

So run for your life now
Maybe you won't you wanna stay here
And live underground
We gotta get out
While the going is good
We gotta turn out the lights
We gotta run for the words

You and I
We live awake at night

I've waited for this
I'm the letter you never sent
I'm just a shot at forgiveness
All the words now taken back
In every way I need you
Pull me through every memory you thread
I've waited for this
It's ever wound I won't forget

You made your move and now it's mine again
Can I give you something to believe in?

So run for your life now
Maybe you won't you wanna stay here
And live underground
We gotta get out
While the going is good
We gotta turn out the lights
We gotta run for the words

You and I
We live awake at night

Run away run away but don't go
Till you've heard every word I've said
Run away run away but just know
I will be two steps ahead

You and I
