Levi Weaver - All Our Days

In the morning, when the sleep
Is like a drug you’re coming up from
And your dreams are whispering final words
In languages you no longer speak
Will you hold me once before you go
Before we face all we’re beholden to
Love me when I look the worse for wear
With my darkness in the darkness there

We’re alone, and we’ll die alone together
After all our days are counted up and gone

In the evening when the world is old
And the sun has chased the sky to bed
We can whisper one more chapter
Into this book that never will be read
‘Til the final little page falls out
And we struggle to recover it
Trying to read what we forgot
(Desperate for one more page to whisper in)

We’re alone, and we’ll die alone together
After all our days are counted up and gone

And I know that love is just like water paints
We mix each other up ’til we can’t separate
But all my numbers count back down to you

So come dance with me across the floor
For however long we’ve got
Before the shadow in the corner
Checks his watch and motions towards the door
And we’re ushered to the exits
Like young lovers with a curfew
And I’ll hold your hand and whisper
“Whatever’s next, I’m gonna love you”

Then we’re alone, and we’ll die alone together
After all our days are counted up and gone
