Next To Me Lyrics - Sleeping At Last

Oh, our futures were written with crayons in coloring books 

It was misspelled and outside the lines and we loved how it looked 

Like the crooked hem of your favorite childhood dress 

And the holes in my jeans from years of carelessness 

I know since we've grown, we ache for those memories 

Honestly, nothing's even compared to you next to me, next to me 

When the words came to you for the first time, you knew you were hooked 

And the pride that you felt at the last page of your first book 

And the bravery I forced when I sang to an audience of three 

Well, it took a million wrong notes just to find a single melody and key 

I know since we've grown we plea for clarity 

Honestly, nothing's ever made sense til you were next to me, next to me

If time is money, then I'll spend it all for you 

I will buy you flowers with the minutes we outgrew 

I'll turn hours into gardens, planted just for us to take 

I'll be reckless with my days, building castles in your name

Since we've grown, we long for concrete things 

Honestly, nothing's felt so sure than when you were next to me, next to me 

So lets cut down the red tape and gather up the pieces of our youth 

Cause there's nothing in this world we can't fix with some scissors and glue
