Holiday

(album: Smiling Like An Idiot - 2022)

The old piano, it falls out of tune
But I made you a promise, I'd play it for you
So you listen in the corner with your faded swan tattoo
Suddenly all of my wishes came true but

Nobody knows that I drove here to see you
I guess it's easier out of the light
So we lie in your room playing songs on the speakers
I was dreaming of this but I was nervous that night

I guess I know now what I thought to be true
It's a holiday, it's just different with you
Well I guess I know now what I thought to be true
It's a holiday, it's just different with you

Down to the beach now the lights almost faded
With two glasses of wine that we took from the house
Later I'll watch you climb through the back bedroom window
I was looking at you, right as I locked us out

Nobody knows how we kissed in the kitchen
In the church, in the ruins, with the dead in the yard
I like everything about everything that we're doing
So how could I say goodbye? Even sleeping is hard

I guess I know now what I thought to be true
It's a holiday, it's just different with you
Well I guess I know now what I thought to be true
It's a holiday, it's just different with you

Pulling through the gates
I'm a trip disaster
The rain came down, the days spin faster
What if we can't keep this in the shade?

'Cause I guess I know now what I thought to be true
It's a holiday, it's just different with you
Well I guess I know now what I thought to be true
It's a holiday, it's just different with you
It's a holiday, it's just different with you
