E
Open your eyes and stretch your hands
This house is clean but it is not my home
A
Did I make this bed
E
The two hands touch on two
Sometimes I think of some place colder
The sound of traffic and the way it's worn
AE
When you feel yourself grow up inside of here
AE
And you love me just like a stranger
A (stop)
But you love me just like I am
E A (repeated)
E
Remember we ran through lovely streets
We made our rules and then we broke them first
AE
It felt like we were running all the time
E
When I wouldn't give one ugly moment
I'd wrap it up, I'd keep it in my sock
AE
I can keep it, yeah, I know what's yours is mine
AE
And you love me just like a stranger
A (stop)
But you love me when
EA
I stand to the sleep that lets me love some other day
We get bored of weakness all the time
Now I won't know how much I lost until I've gone away
Your sun sets when my sun starts to shine
