Verse 1:
on the voyage home through the haze of the night
when i saw your face it was bathed in the light
full sky of stars we collided like cars
in a town of people who always drive drunk


Chorus 1:

                                   /
and i don't know what to do
                             
by your side i will lie awake
                         /
tell me love isn't true
                                  
is this just a trick to procreate?


Verse 2
the dawn approach we'll arrive at the shore
and the boat that we boarded will unboard us all
there we will part, to our homes we return
i was bittersweet....to have someone to yearn

Chorus 2 (same chords as first)
for i don't know what to do
by your side i will lie awake
tell me love isn't true
is this just a trick to procreate?


/                     
everyone living as one 
                                       
down in the hall where i need you
/                         
ill take you into my arms
                      
thats when i will leave
/                     
everyone living as one
                      
one, morning to breathe
/                                  
i knew that this day would come
                                
its such a permanent feeling                         X2
