From the broken window of your room We watch the tower kiss the halo of the moon Somewhere in a field of our friends You left my favorite shirt hanging on a fence To scare the crows, no one knows Just how our story goes You and I, before we die We're going to give this dream a try When we do, tell me true What am I to you? Just a passing thing, or your future king? They're gonna say the rules are real We're gonna say we go by feel They're gonna say we've got it wrong We're gonna say the world's a song We make up as we go Sailing paper airplanes down the stairs We hear the sirens in the warm summer air Leanin' out the window, lookin' up We watch the Big Dipper slowly filling up The darkness grows, no one knows Just how our story goes You and I, before we die We're going to give this dream a try When we do, tell me true What am I to you? Just a passing thing, or your future king? They're gonna say the rules are real We're gonna say we go by feel They're gonna say we've got it wrong We're gonna say the world's a song We make up as we go
