[Verse 1]
I missed the bus, so I took the long way
Found a five-dollar bill by the cafe
You sent a picture of your crooked smile
Said, “Come meet me, I’ve been waiting a while”
My plans were written in permanent ink
Then you called and made me stop and think
Now every wrong turn feels less like a loss
When you’re laughing beside me, counting the cost
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t need a perfect map tonight
Just a little nerve and a porch light
If the whole world says we’re running late
We’ll arrive whenever we decide to
[Chorus]
We’re making something out of almost nothing
Turning small sparks into a reason to run
You’ve got your hand out, I’ve got mine coming
Look at us, look at us, here we become
No big promise, no grand design
Just your heartbeat keeping time with mine
We’re making something out of almost nothing
And somehow it feels like enough tonight
[Verse 2]
Your old blue jacket smells like cedar wood
The zipper sticks, but it holds like it should
We split one soda at the corner store
Then spend an hour talking by the door
You say you worry that you’re hard to know
I say I like the places people don’t show
There’s a whole bright room behind your guarded face
I’ll take the stairs, I don’t mind the pace
[Pre-Chorus]
We don’t need a perfect plan in sight
Just a little truth and a porch light
If tomorrow tries to change our shape
We’ll bend without breaking, make our own way
[Chorus]
We’re making something out of almost nothing
Turning small sparks into a reason to run
You’ve got your hand out, I’ve got mine coming
Look at us, look at us, here we become
No big promise, no grand design
Just your heartbeat keeping time with mine
We’re making something out of almost nothing
And somehow it feels like enough tonight
[Bridge]
Maybe the best days don’t announce their names
Maybe they slip in through the cracks of the day
A missed train, a cheap meal, your shoes by mine
A little bit of courage at the right time
[Final Chorus]
We’re making something out of almost nothing
Turning small sparks into a reason to run
You’ve got your hand out, I’ve got mine coming
Look at us, look at us, here we become
No big promise, no grand design
Just your heartbeat keeping time with mine
We’re making something out of almost nothing
And somehow it feels like enough tonight
[Outro]
Almost nothing, more than we knew
Almost nowhere, still led me to you
