lyrics

When we met gave me a ten dollar bill
told me go straight for the kill
won't you please me yeah we talked about everything

we talked about a sun swept patio
some black and white video so proper yeah
we talked about everything

we talked about never needing believing
never felt afraid of fading then freedom for you
we talked about everything

we talked about failing at all of this
about dreamin' a little tryst while I'm making a list
we talked about everything

And I knew that I'd find my way back in with you
baby there was nothing that we couldn't do
so can you see what's lost and what's left behind
can we talk about everything?
Baby now I gotta go with a minute bow
opening the window and I'm stepping out
so hold me close are we gonna keep a silent vow
when we talk about everything
when we talk about everything

We talked about waiting for all the wounds
about creepin under the moons
about cradling me we talked about everything

we talked about leaving ajar a door where it's naked and warm
didn't we mate? you know you know
we talked about everything

we told each other bedtime stories of our
first spun glories of our sweetest songs
we talked about everything

we talked about wading out in the wind
feelin' weighty weakened within without anything
yeah we talked about everything

And I knew that I'd find my way back in with you
baby there was nothing that we couldn't do
so can you see what's lost and what's left behind
can we talk about everything?
Maybe not I gotta go in a minute now
opening the window and I'm stepping out
so hold me close are we gonna keep a silent vow
when we talk about everything
when we talk about everything.
