[Jason Mraz, band member, Crowd]
Well our, well our friends they sit
And they're on the front porch
And they're telling their jokes
And they
Swinging oh so swiftly towards happier times
They expending line and finding more energy for the effort
And getting distance from that front porch spotlight
But us, we found peace in shadows
Long enough to see the monsters rise
And Candy's got some space to fill in her daydreams
Living high on yesterday's lies
And talking to me about some 0% interest
And how she got a better deal than the next guy, oh my god
And the way the lightning shocked us
Oh, when we were lost
And we were looking around that long deserted highway
Well her hair was longer then and now I, I can remember
Say now well and I remember oh so well
And it's almost too well now
Oh the roads unencumbered by cats
They're burning like wet matches
Through my miracle mile mind
But it's all in my mind
You left your thumbprint inside me now
For months it seems
But mine only brushes your soft surface
And somehow now
Somehow it leaves me listle-less
My tongue curls under my lips, oh, oh yes
So I can't speak to tell you of the months before that I met true love, love
Oh, true love
And the way
Oh the truth it locked us, uh
Oh, right about the time after the lightning shocked us
Sing it again
When we were young
When we were young and missing
Around that small New England byway
And our lives they were sheltered then and I now I can remember
And I remember when now so well
It's almost too well
Oh, it's not even being about that anymore
I gotta get you down tonight
Those tiny fragments of perfection
Don't you know they please me in a time unchanged
But it's all the same beginning
And it's a long awaited, a long, a long awaited end
If I knew all the words
I would write myself out of here
If I was all the colors
I would paint you pretty in gold in a picture
So I'm told, little sister
So now I'm sold, little sister
Why don't you tell me about
The sunsets in Sweden
And the laws of Eden
And how you were the Rock of Gibraltar
And how they called you Foxy
(Foxy)
Well that's another whole box of Pandora's
That's another whole box of them ties
Slide your foot off the gas
Before we crash right back into the median
Right back into the median
The median, oh oh oh
That separates our house
From the middle of the street
Our house (Our house)
Alright, that's your part this time
Here we go, sing
Our house
Oh, that's nice
From the middle of the street
Our house, our house
Oh, I'm doing the Toca there for a second
Our ho- Okay, we're doing this still
(From the middle of the street)
(Our house, our house)
Ugh!
Damn, they got a powerhouse back here
(Our house in the middle of the street)
Hey, they're not making up for the rest of you
You're gonna, you... yeah, here we go
Kay, only the sexy people
(Our house )
There it is
(From the middle of the street)
Okay, only the horny people
Woo!
(Our house
From the middle of the street)
(Our house our house)
Only the sweaty people
You guys aren't sweaty?
One more time for the sex heads
(Our house, from the middle of the street)
Our house, our house
In Spanish!
Mi casa en el medio de la calle
One more time, here we go
Mi casa en el medio de la calle
Eh, mi casa, mi casa, mi casa, su casa
Our house, and
Well it's on the front porch
Well they're telling the jokes
They swinging oh so swiftly towards happier times
They expanding all those lines and finding more energy for the effort
And getting distance from that front porch spotlight
But announce that we found the peace in all of them shadows
Oh, long enough to see that monster die
Oh, long enough to see the monster die
Oh, long enough
Is it long enough
Is it long enough
Is it long enough for me?
Oh my
Well if it isn't
And if it isn't
And if it isn't
And if it isn't
And it it ain't ain't
And if it don't
Well if it can't
A then it won't
And if it isn't
And if it isn't
And if it isn't
If it isn't
And it ain't ain't
And it it don't
Well if can't
Then it won't
And that's just the way that it goes
Over and over again
Now that's just the way things go
Give yourselves a hand for that one
That's cool
