All That & a Pair of Socks

let's share all the colors of the night
and it might seem like
we can stop time
just erase the lines
feel the pulse of the city
as it breathes
in sync with the people
and disease

yeah we'll paint this picture
and enjoy the simple things
make these puppets dance
and untie these strings
when all's well and done
when the moonlight drops
we'll have all that
and a pair of socks

let's share the stories that we hold
one's that we've been told
don't write them down
the word spreads through town
on a loopy grapevine
on and on
who knows where it might end
when it's gone

yeah we'll paint this picture
and enjoy the simple things
make these puppets dance
and untie these strings
when all's well and done
when the moonlight drops
we'll have all that
and a pair of socks

let's share our passions and our fears
ones we've had for years
and all the rest
that are new at best
makes no difference they're
just as strong
despite how it may feel
we hold on

yeah we'll take this photo
we'll see the sunrise tonight
take on one last chance
and get out of this fight
and when all's well and done
when the moonlight drops
when we feel the hum
in the old record shops
when we get to laugh
about what we thought
and notice it's gone
will you miss it a lot?
because after the shower
you'll see what you've got
will be all but nothing
and a pair of socks
