The Usual
I find myself lying here looking in your face
And i'm trying to remember how we took shape
When we were kids did I have a pick at you
Or did we meet as adults and knew that we were true
Somewhere along the lines
I've gotten use to our design
From not expecting, we know the time
To almost reading each other's mind
Taking the time to listen to you snore
Seems as soothing as raindrops or flakes of snow
These things may seem simple to some
But I'm like a kid waiting for Christmas to come
Watching you wrinkle your nose
Seems you want to laugh, but your mouth is close
It's like a new day when your smile shows
You're having a nice dream I suppose
Maybe of everybody looking up above
At you and me declaring our love
In fields of blue or on cloud covered rugs
Maybe I'm running behind you, just for a hug
Vowing to never take you for granted
Knowing that you'll never leave me stranded
I offer you all that I have or will ever get
Branded upon my heart is the day we me
You understand what I'm saying
You know that I'll be staying
Because although there's still a game
You realize that you feel the same
But now the game has changed and the rules too
The name of the game is now "Me And You'
The rules are only a few
Do whatever it takes to keep you
Feeling deprived of the chance
To have given you the first glance
To have asked you for the first dance
Or for us to had explored our first romance
But some obstacles are easily overcame
Because nothing with you is ever the same
Each time I look, you're more beautiful
And each time I dance with you, my heart feels a pull
Maybe it all started like a seed
A tingle, a want, and finally a need
Having you is something that has to be
And I know this is the way that you feel for me
And i'm trying to remember how we took shape
When we were kids did I have a pick at you
Or did we meet as adults and knew that we were true
Somewhere along the lines
