lyrics

It was after one,
And you were after something
Besides polite conversation
But we'd just had a fight
Cause I was trying too hard to hide
All of my affection

But I thought I should tell you I appreciate
The way you held my hand
And I thought I should tell you I appreciate
That it didn't seem to matter that I couldn't walk straight

We sat years away
While we looked years ahead
Trying to figure out each other's plan
Of attack
But after all once our bodies fall entwined it all seems insane
It's only moon beams
And sweet dreams
That remain.

It was getting late
When you rang my doorbell
And said that you'd lost direction
But I was still a mite
Infuriated with you
For not paying attention

But I thought I should tell you I appreciate
The way you groveled at my feet
And I thought I should tell you I appreciate
That you played the song we wrote at that bar we used to meet

We sat years away
While we looked years ahead
Trying to figure out if what we had was
Living or dead
But with the day washes away all imperfections
It's only moonbeams
And sweet dreams
That remain.

Oh there'll be fights
There'll be wars
We'll keep tabs and lists and scores
But at every harsh words core
We'll understand each other a little bit more

It was barely noon
When you woke me up with sweet
Egg and bacon perfume
I couldn't for my life
Remember what it was that had made me
So mad at you.
