[Verse 1]
You showed up late
Shoelace torn
Eyes all red
Laughing through it
Said
"Today tried to knock off my head"
Coffee on your shirt
Unpaid bills in your bag
We got six bucks
And a couch with a permanent sag
[Chorus]
We’ll put rust on our rings
Baby
Let the years leave their stains on the gold
We’ll stay soft in a world goin' crazy
Growing up without growing cold
If it bends
We just bend there together
If it breaks
We can tie it with string
Through the storms
Through the bad
Through the better
We’ll put rust
Rust on our rings
[Verse 2]
Argued all night
Over nothing and everything
You slept sideways
Kicked the blanket off in your dreams
Morning made toast
Burned one side
We still ate
You said
"Love’s this
Tiny choice that we keep makin' late"
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
Maybe we’ll live in a hallway flat
Paint on our jeans
Dishes stacked
I'll hold your hand in a power cut
You’ll trace my name on the dust in the backseat
[whistled melody
Slightly off-key]
If we fall
Then we fall
Then we fall
But we fall on each other
That’s all
[Chorus]
