The Rest Of Our Lives

Nothing ever goes the way you think it should

How you imagined it would be

Life’ll laugh at you and turn your whole world upside down

Just to prove that it could

 

You start to wonder if there’s someone else to blame

Who might be sleeping on the job.

You go to bed at night, never knowing

You’ll wake up and nothing’s the same

 

Your eyes, red as sunrise 

bury ‘em deep in the warmth of my arms

You tell me nothing’s gonna make it alright

You can’t sleep through an endless night

But you’ve got a beautiful smile

You put it on even when the rain is falling

We’ve gotta take whatever hope survives

And start living out the rest of our lives

 

All that I can think to do is hold you tight

And tell you I’m not going away

And hope this life of ours won’t end too early

But spend every day like it might. 

 

Your eyes, red as sunrise 

bury ‘em deep in the warmth of my arms

You tell me nothing’s gonna make it alright

You can’t sleep through an endless night

But you’ve got a beautiful smile

You put it on even when the rain is falling

We’ve gotta take whatever hope survives

And start living out the rest of our lives

 

Some days go by like they just mean nothing

But then some days can change your life

Hearts left in pieces but the world keeps moving

For now let’s just be alright

 

Your eyes, red as sunrise 

bury ‘em deep in the warmth of my arms

You tell me nothing’s gonna make it alright

You can’t sleep through an endless night

But you’ve got a beautiful smile

You put it on even when the rain is falling

We’ve gotta take whatever hope survives

And start living out the rest of our lives
