Hey, I’ve got this notion
that in the end we’ll both be okay
I’ll set this love in motion
Set down your load
Just watch me press play
And it’ll all unfold
Let me hold your trembling heart
Realize that these truths
Are worth more than
Our weight in gold
You said don’t
Just live and settle
’Cause being like them
Leaves nothing to find
And what’s the use in living
Unless we both decide
Not to fall into line
