These days are long These lives are full Just for a laugh Can we take it slow? I've turned the breakers off There's no electric glow Naked as the night sky We're laid out on the floor But in the lantern light The flicker of the flame I've never been so beautiful I wouldn't change a thing Give thanks for every day I came home to you I came home to you And I can be stubborn And you can be hard Nothing to forgive It's just the way we are And all we've ever wanted Is something no one's ever had Just to never hurt the ones we love again But in the lantern light The flicker of the flame I've never been so beautiful I wouldn't change a thing Give thanks for every day I came home to you Don't you hide those scars They're every little wound that made you who you are And in the lantern light The flicker of the flame You have never been so beautiful so beautiful I guess we both know You're the stronger one I guess we both hope This isn't over and done And in the lantern light The flicker of the flame You have never been so beautiful I wouldn't change a thing Give thanks for every day I came home to you Don't you hide those scars Of every little wound that made you who you are And in the lantern light The flicker of the flame You have never been so beautiful so beautiful
