Same Lyrics by Compton McMurry

East

2020

Let's picture us, against odds, crossing paths –
Meeting by chance and, in love, falling fast
See I’m caught by your eyes, your hazel brown drawing the well
Of mine as I stare like you're brand new to me when you're not, and no one can tell

Ever carefully noted just how they always told it to us would be way
Closer to textbook romance you might say… but it wouldn’t be the same

Mary, be mine down a mile-markered line –
“En route to you, hours and miles, I won't mind,”
I preach to myself, slouched out in the back of the room
See everyone wars with the impulse to drift but we've shown now we won't lose

Ever carefully noted just how they always told it to us would be way
Closer to textbook romance you might say… but it wouldn't be the same

But I don't know. I half believe
‘Cause you and all I know, I never see...
When we arrive, where will we be?

I can't say we're gonna settle down. Can’t say we’re gonna settle down
Never settle. Never settle, never settle down

When you're around, I can never catch my breath

Promises of a steady life, of a final day in a palace…
Promises that were never, no… never mine to make for or at us
Are slipping off on a broken chain and we’re skipping off, we'll never stay the same

Ever carefully noted just how they always told it to us would be way
Closer to textbook romance you might say… but it wouldn't be the same
