Just Double Checking
When we're sleeping
I get up to check the lock
When we're leaving
Back inside a dozen times
You're trying to be patient
But I see you roll your eyes
Good can happen
I can be there when it does
Like when I'm singing to you
I know what's in my hands
I've got a cat in my lap
The sun is streaming down
Like when I'm singing to you
And strum away intrusive thoughts
We could all be dead in an earthquake
But we could also not
Interrupting
the romance
Could you repeat what you just said?
Birds were chirping in my brain
I'm trying to keep records of the time
That we spend
But my phone is out of space
Momentary grace
Like when I'm singing to you
I know what's in my hands
I've got a dog in my lap
The sun is streaming down
Like when I'm singing to you
The center of gravity in my room
I'm giving in like the tide to the moon
Trying to be in control every moment
Is not as effective as you would think
I'm letting myself go
Embracing what comes in the absence
I'm gonna ride it like a wave
So I can get back to you
I know what's in my hands
I've got a cat in my lap
The sun is streaming down
Like when I'm singing to you
And strum away intrusive thoughts
I wonder what will be left
I think I'll like it a lot
I get up to check the lock
When we're leaving
Back inside a dozen times
You're trying to be patient
But I see you roll your eyes
Good can happen
I can be there when it does
Like when I'm singing to you
I know what's in my hands
I've got a cat in my lap
The sun is streaming down
Like when I'm singing to you
And strum away intrusive thoughts
We could all be dead in an earthquake
But we could also not
Interrupting
the romance
Could you repeat what you just said?
Birds were chirping in my brain
I'm trying to keep records of the time
That we spend
But my phone is out of space
Momentary grace
Like when I'm singing to you
I know what's in my hands
I've got a dog in my lap
The sun is streaming down
Like when I'm singing to you
The center of gravity in my room
I'm giving in like the tide to the moon
Trying to be in control every moment
Is not as effective as you would think
I'm letting myself go
Embracing what comes in the absence
I'm gonna ride it like a wave
So I can get back to you
I know what's in my hands
I've got a cat in my lap
The sun is streaming down
Like when I'm singing to you
And strum away intrusive thoughts
I wonder what will be left
I think I'll like it a lot
