Alec
I'll leave a light on
Under the stairs
For you to guide home
Back where
Our shadows used to go
You paved a wide road
I never paid for
Made all the places up
Ive been dreaming
Ive been seeking
Oh you waited for
All I wanted you
Loaned your better days to me
Oh I can't add up
All you taught me
Even all the bitter tastes
Oh I owe myself to you
Lost in the back street
Probing the dark
I waited for your voice
To show me how to make it out
Taking a two step
You taught the dance hall
Im missing points and time
But thats alright cause so did you
Fading out
Floating on like balloons
Staring at empty rooms
In the old house
Both passed out in
The backseat of our car
Watching the streetlights turn to stars
Fully at peace
I can't take away
From all the times you set me straight
For all the messes that you saved
And all the ones Ive yet to make
To find
We're closer with the days
And all the messes made
You turned around
In time
When we both grow old and leave
Still following your feet
Into the dark
Oh we settled down
Both on our own track made of shiplap that we found along the ground
No you're not around
But im still sitting on your shoulders anyway anyhow
And oh from where I stand
We turned out alright in the end
So flip the sand
And let it blow off in the wind
So when I see you
Or when we sneak off in the grass
I'll call your name
What can I say but thanks again
To find
We're closer with the days
And all the messes made
You turned around
In time
When we both grow old and leave
Still following your feet
Into the dark
Ill leave a light on
Under the stairs
Calling you back home
Waiting to see you in the door
Under the stairs
For you to guide home
Back where
Our shadows used to go
You paved a wide road
I never paid for
Made all the places up
Ive been dreaming
Ive been seeking
Oh you waited for
All I wanted you
Loaned your better days to me
Oh I can't add up
All you taught me
Even all the bitter tastes
Oh I owe myself to you
Lost in the back street
Probing the dark
I waited for your voice
To show me how to make it out
Taking a two step

But thats alright cause so did you
Fading out
Floating on like balloons
Staring at empty rooms
In the old house
Both passed out in

Watching the streetlights turn to stars
Fully at peace
I can't take away
From all the times you set me straight
For all the messes that you saved
And all the ones Ive yet to make

We're closer with the days
And all the messes made

Still following your feet
Into the dark
Ill leave a light on
Under the stairs
Calling you back home
Waiting to see you in the door
