Future Tense

You come to town and we have three nights
We never sleep until your red eye
We turn our phones off for the whole night
And end up staring at the sunrise

And then we part ways while it still feels right
When you're gone I'm back to my life
Love we never have to act like
This is worth more of our time

My friends all wonder what we're doing
Why we care what are we proving
But with us there's understanding
It's not love that we're banking on

I don't think about you and I don't try
To let myself wonder what you really feel like

'Cause I like an ocean between us both
Don't get me wrong I like when you're close
And when you kiss me it feels just right
And you know just how to hold me tight
I'll always be here when you come to town
Give you attention when you're around
This doesn't need to make sense
We don't speak in the future tense

You work for me cause I like control
Don't need a man to make me feel whole
I'd rather be by myself alone
Than waiting for someone to get home

I've made my share of foolish mistakes
But what we got saves us from heartbreak
You like that I always shoot straight
And I like that you never debate

My friends all wonder what we're doing
Why we care what are we proving
But with us there's understanding
It's not love that we're banking on

I don't think about you and I don't try
To let myself wonder what you really feel like

'Cause I like an ocean between us both
Don't get me wrong I like when you're close
And when you kiss me it feels just right
And you know just how to hold me tight
I'll always be here when you come to town
Give you attention when you're around
This doesn't need to make sense
We don't speak in the future tense

'Cause I like an ocean between us both
'Cause I like an ocean
'Cause I like an ocean between us both
'Cause I like an ocean

'Cause I like an ocean between us both
Don't get me wrong I like when you're close
This doesn't need to make sense
We don't speak in the future tense
