Lyrics

[00:28.72] With a hammer and nails and a fear of failure
[00:32.68] We are building a shed
[00:36.54] Between here and heaven
[00:38.44] Between the wait and the wedding
[00:40.37] For as long as we both shall be dead
[00:43.56] To the world beyond the boys and the girls
[00:46.28] Trying to keep us calm
[00:50.32] We can practice our lines
[00:52.20] 'til we're deaf and blind
[00:54.20] To ourselves to each other where it's
[00:56.71] Fall not winter, spring not summer, cool not cold
[01:04.03] And it's warm not hot
[01:05.96] Have we all forgotten that we're getting old
[01:38.72] With an arrow and bow and some seeds left to sow
[01:53.94] We are staking our claim
[01:57.31] On ground so fertile we forget who we've hurt along
[02:02.10] The way and reach out for a strange hand to hold
[02:05.50] Someone strong but not bold enough
[02:07.71] To tear down the wall
[02:11.83] Cause we ain't lost enough to find the stars ain't
[02:14.05] Crossed why align them why fall
[02:16.08] Hard not soft into
[02:18.12] Fall not winter, spring not summer, cool not cold
[02:25.48] Where it's warm not hot
[02:29.52] Have we all forgotten that we're getting old
[03:02.65] And it's fall not winter, spring not summer, cool not cold
[03:10.10] And it's warm not hot
[03:12.10] Has everyone forgotten that we're getting old
[03:17.83] And it's fall not winter, spring not summer, cool not cold
[03:25.44] And it's warm not hot
[03:28.10] Have we all forgotten that we're getting old
[03:33.89]
