streetlight
yellow in the room
lifting out our futures from the gloom
same song
in the street below
football song that everybody knows
(chorus)that's when he told her
that he loved her
and he'd love her all his life - 2x
bright lights
five years down the lane
point to where the just born babies cry
he knows now
they are joined for good
life could never break them
nothing could
(chorus 2x)
30 years pass like a sonic boom
sunlight floods into a different room
they both know they're saying goodbye too soon
but there's no more time
(chorus)
that's when he told her
that he meant it when he
said he loved her
and he'd love her all his life
