I Want Us Lyrics by The Roads Below

Cigarette With Mom

2016

[Verse 1]
You said, I just need a little time to
Think about without you and what I need next
I don’t even want to but baby made me want to
Stop thinking of me and fight for you instead
And I just don’t know whatever went wrong
I still feel you holdin’ on, even now
No matter what you do, no matter where you go
No matter what you say or what I don’t know
[Chorus]
I want us
I want tough
I want the late night fights about trust
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
Can you hear me, I can’t hear you
I can’t hear you
Anymore on the floor with the lights down
Keeping quiet cause I snuck into your house
I want the way you laugh when you get way too drunk
I want us
[Verse 2]
Waking up at 10 I can feel you in my arms
You would never like to work but never work too hard
And then you turn to say I don’t ever want to leave
I’ll stay here with you, just stay here with me (Yeah)
Do you remember then back when we were just friends
You were scared and swore to me you’d never love again
But you didn’t know I can't just let you take it back
I’ll fight for everything we ever had
[Chorus]
I want us
I want tough
I want the late night fights about trust
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
Can you hear me, I can’t hear you
I can’t hear you
Anymore on the floor with the lights down
Keeping quiet cause I snuck into your house
I want the way you laugh when you get way too drunk
I want us
And I want us
[Bridge]
Do you remember the night we spent
Talking about the little dreams you had
Growing up and how you know they'd never come
True
You said you wanted family and a big white house
With a creek in the back, running through a small town
And you know that I oh I wouldn’t want the same
You said I’m meant for the city
I’m meant for that fight
The sixtieth floor, the neon lights
And you tried, don’t wanna fail life
But don’t you know what love can do
To a man like me when he only wants you
It makes you wrong, it changed my life
I want the big white house, I wanna make you my wife
[Chorus]
I want us
I want tough
I want the late night fights about trust
I wanna scream at the top of my lungs
Can you hear me, I can’t hear you
I can’t hear you
Anymore on the floor with the lights down
Keeping quiet cause I snuck into your house
I want the way you laugh when you get way too drunk
I want us
(In the middle of the rain in the morning)
(By the river in the middle of the night)
I want us
(No where to run, when I want to, I want to)
I want us
(I want us, I want us)
I want us
