Side by Side

歌詞

Boxes by the window Tape across the floor Half-built bookshelf Leaning by the door You read the directions I hold them upside down Five little screws We still haven't found A frame on the wall Tilted to the right You say, "Let's leave it" I say, "All right" Paint on your elbow Dust in my hair We look at the room Then move the chair Side by side You and I Getting it wrong Till it feels just right Side by side All afternoon Making a home One room at a time You take that end I'll take this side Side by side Piece by piece Hold it steady I'll check the line Side by side One room at a time Takeout on the counter A record on side B The room's still unfinished But it looks good to me You sit on the floor I turn down the lights We leave all the boxes For another night Side by side You and I Getting it wrong Till it feels just right Side by side All afternoon Making a home One room at a time One more nail One more try Hold it steady A little left—right there Step back now Take in the view This little place Feels more like us Side by side You and I Getting it wrong Till it feels just right Side by side All afternoon Making a home One room at a time Side by side Side, side You and I Side by side Piece by piece One room at a time You and I Side by side Side by side Piece by piece One room at a time You and I Side by side Side by side Side by side You and I
