We saw the western coast
  I saw the hospital
  Nurse the shoreline like a wound
  We paint a lover's tryst
  We're neither clear nor descript
  We kept it safe and slow

  The quiet things that no one ever knows
  Keep the blood in your head and keep your feet on the ground
  Today's the day it gets tired. Today's the day we drop down
  Give up my body in bed
  All for an empty hotel
  Wasting words on lowercases and capitals

  I contemplate the day we wed
 Your friends are boring me to death
 Your veil is ruined in the rain
 By then you like to do without
 There's nothing new to talk about
 And though our kids are blessed, the parents let them shoulder all the blame

 Keep the blood in your head and keep your feet on the ground.
 Today's the day it gets tired. Today's the day we drop down
 Give up my body in bed
 All for an empty hotel
 Wasting words on lowercases and capitals

 I lie for only you
 And I lie well
 Halleluh

 Keep the blood in your head and keep your feet on the ground
 Today's the day it gets tired
 Today's the day we drop down
 Give up my body in bed
 All for an empty hotel
 Wasting words on lowercases and capitals.
