10,000 Days

call into work
tell ’em you’re sick
there’s no way I’ll let you out of this bed
til you tell me all the things I want to know
where was your first kiss?
Who was your first love?
When did you make it first
And out of what emotion
Did it grow?

what good is tip-toeing
either way this bridge is burning?

Ten thousand days of chaos
And my mouth would not betray us
I’ll promise you, I’ll promise this
Ten thousand nights of silence
You’ve got my complete compliance
I’ll keep your secrets safe you’ll see
Oh just save one for me

You showed me yours
So I’ll show you mine
I was in love once but it was not blind
Opened a side of me I hope you’ll never see
And everyone chimed in
Like everyone does
And I was advised til I gave up on love
That’s your where found me
That first night I spilled my drink
(on your date)

good girls get good cages
come on baby, I can take it

Ten thousand days of chaos
And my mouth would not betray us
I’ll promise you, I’ll promise this
Ten thousand nights of silence
You’ve got my complete compliance
I’ll keep your secrets safe you’ll see
Oh just save one for me

Call into work, tell ’em you’re sick
There’s no way I’ll let you out of this…
Bed

Ten thousand days of chaos
And my mouth would not betray us
I’ll promise you, I’ll promise this
Ten thousand nights of silence
You’ve got my complete compliance
I’ll keep your secrets safe you’ll see
Oh just save one for me
