Best of us

(Verse 1)

The sun spills gold on the window pane, another morning breaks

You're tangled in the sheets again, for heaven's sake

I could just lie here and watch you breathe, a perfect, stolen slow

But the world is waiting on the other side, and we've got miles to go

We're in a hurry for the daylight, for the coffee and the chase

To fill every single minute with the rhythm and the pace

(Chorus)

'Cause we're chasing the day, with laughter on the breeze

Spinning all our moments out between the rustling trees

But when the velvet darkness falls, and the stars begin to bloom

We're lingering in the moonlight, dancing in a silent room

Chasing time, spending years with you

Through every sunrise, every sky of midnight blue.

(Verse 2)

We've walked a million city blocks, and climbed a hundred hills

Raced against the ticking clocks, to get our fill

Of all the stories we can tell, the places we have been

Building a beautiful fortress with the chaos held within

We've lived like there's no tomorrow, a hunger in our stride

With every second borrowed, with nothing left to hide

(Chorus)

'Cause we're chasing the day, with laughter on the breeze

Spinning all our moments out between the rustling trees

But when the velvet darkness falls, and the stars begin to bloom

We're lingering in the moonlight, dancing in a silent room

Chasing time, spending years with you

Through every sunrise, every sky of midnight blue.

(Bridge)

Some days are a blur of motion, a rush from here to there

A fast-forward, an endless ocean of air

But the night, it holds us still, it slows the frantic beat

And a quiet, gentle thrill, makes the bittersweet complete

(Chorus)

'Cause we're chasing the day, with laughter on the breeze

Spinning all our moments out between the rustling trees

But when the velvet darkness falls, and the stars begin to bloom

We're lingering in the moonlight, dancing in a silent room

Chasing time, spending years with you

Through every sunrise, every sky of midnight blue.

(Outro)

Yeah, chasing time, spending years with you

It's all we've ever wanted to do.
