I want to I want to hold you
Every time I go home
there's another cellphone tower
Construction getting louder
paving over yesterdays
You and I we will try to find
the side of it that's pretty
While our town becomes a city
we won't let it be erased
Empires rise empires fall
Will you be
my constant through it all
I will hold your hand
and watch the world spin idly
around this life we're in
Oh yeah everything goes quiet
when it's you I'm with
Oh yeah everything goes quiet
when it's you I'm with
You you you
Every once in a while
you know I get
these real bad headaches
Worried about the mistakes
that I've made along the way
You and I we can't hide
from the fact that we need each other
How else will I recover
when the fever comes again
Temperatures rise temperatures fall
Will you be
my constant through it all
I will hold your hand
and watch the world spin idly
around this life we're in
Oh yeah everything goes quiet
when it's you I'm with
Oh yeah everything goes quiet
when it's you I'm with
You you you
There are no words no words
when I'm with you you you
Every time I hear music
they've added more stuff to it
Things are always moving
into a futuristic place
Where you and I will try
we'll try to dance into tomorrow
But time will have to borrow
not a minute left to waste
Heartbeats rise heartbeats fall
Will you be
my constant through it all
I will hold your hand
and watch the world spin idly
around this life we're in
Oh yeah everything goes quiet
when it's you I'm with
Oh yeah everything goes quiet
when it's you I'm with
everything goes quiet
when it's you I'm with
everything goes quiet
when it's you I'm with
