Sun through the blinds

Leaving stripes on the rug

I would open my eyes

You’d be already up spinning

Circles on your toes

You’d wear my mom’s necklace

I’d watch it swing right to left

In that charleston apartment

A true treasure chest and to me

You were gold

I was so accustomed to having you with me

Falling in love was a part

Of my everyday routine

I always thought you and me

Would never actually grow up

We’d talk in little kid voices

Like we’re still treehouse young

And time would leave us alone

Because we were special enough

It all felt special enough to us

I was so accustomed to having you with me

Falling in love was a part

Of my everyday routine

And that’s quite the high to come down from

I’m not sure how the future’s gonna measure up

Falling in love was a part of

My everyday routine
