Smoke Clears

(album: The Good Parts - 2017)

You and I against the world
That's what you told me
That night in the terminal
As we were boarding
And I know you meant it
Holding my hand so tight
As we flew from Lafayette
Back to pacific time

And you lay your head on my shoulder
A couple tears were shed over Arizona
An emotional roller coaster, yeah

We ride the highs and lows
We ride the highs and lows
You'll never be alone
Even when your world explodes
'Cause after all the smoke clears
I will be right here
I will be right here
When the smoke clears
I will be right here
When the smoke clears

And when I hit the wall
Back in December
I took my hardest fall
But we fell together
And we spent the weekend
Pacing the hotel room
At the Westin in Dublin
Never felt so close to you

And I laid my head on your shoulder
By the time we left we were ten years older
An emotional roller coaster, yeah

We ride the highs and lows
We ride the highs and lows
You'll never be alone
Even when your world explodes
'Cause after all the smoke clears
I will be right here
I will be right here
When the smoke clears
I will be right here
When the smoke clears

You and I against the world
That's what you told me

We ride the highs and lows
We ride the highs and lows
You'll never be alone
Even when your world explodes
'Cause after all the smoke clears
I will be right here
I will be right here
When the smoke clears
