On The Lookout

Roll this one from the top
On the lookout
The wind stopped
We chose this spot
To begin
When we looked out
The waves crashed
Smashing our past
Moving fast
Nothing Lasts
Make it last
This all will pass
Just like us
Just like this spot
Don't miss this
We've only got one shot
Hold on this
(Out on the lookout, so in love)
Rock face
(Out on the lookout, so in love)
It's dried and cracked
(Out on the lookout, so in love)
But grab on
Don't wait long
Longing to
Look out for you
This all will pass
Just like us
Just like this spot
Don't miss this
We've only got one shot
On the lookout
(Out on the lookout, so in love)
On the lookout
(Out on the lookout, so in love)
On the lookout
(Out on the lookout, so in love)
On the lookout
(Out on the lookout, so in love)
On the lookout
(Out on the lookout, so in love)
