I didn't know what it was for, I didn't know why I was there

Seeds put in the lawn, saw the flowers growing so I thought i'd tag along

Until I saw my vines growing in it's windows, I knew this had startled me
G Am C Em G
If we laid on the floors in it's rooms, I'd let your thoughts consume me
Am C Em G
Unlike the sidewalks paved that only saw what they wanted to see
Am C Em G
If we laid in the backyard, and heard the cars in the streets
Am C Em G
Thought maybe if you could see me in the dark, in the light I could finally see me
Am C Em G
If we sat on the front porch, and could feel you surrounding me
Am C Em G
Then for the first time I could feel your heart beating
