moss (ukulele version) Lyrics

So it starts two kids with unguarded hearts

Willing to take anything

Guided along by their wanting

Of a kiss and a dream and night without sleep

Willing to take anything

For a while we worked out each bump in the road

We tried to help carry each load

But sometimes the load wouldn't end

And we cried and we fought and we made up again

We made a deal to remain friends

But a flame costs what it burns and it cost

The tears that we spent and we lost

Which grew into mold and to moss

And it grew on our dreams and our sleep and our love

Eaten away by the rust

So I say I can't give up yet without a fight

You say I'm unhappy and yes

I've been happier I guess

But I know there's no way I'll get by without hurt

So I might as well be hurt by her

So it ends the same way it started it seems

Another night with out sleep

Pray that it comes and you'll dream

About me at a place that you want us to be

Just the way we used to be

Remember when we were happy

Happy, happy

Happy together
