Couple of Days

I’m taking a vacation from the way she brings me down
A thousand beer soaked love songs scattered on the ground
In little stacks of disappointment and little piles of hope
I decided to think positive, and this is what I wrote
I wanna take you with me, across the biggest ocean
To a sunny place, no one ever goes
We can dance and sing your favorite song from memory
There won’t be electricity and maybe we can stay
Together there forever or at least for a couple of days
We’ll have to build a shelter, but I do at least half the work
You can’t make us breakfast wearing nothing but my shirt
And when it rains we can run no one else will see
All the stuff I planned to do to you
And what I hope you do to me
And by stuff I mean having sex and stuff
I’m pretty sure you knew that
I wanna take you with me, across the biggest ocean
To a sunny place, no one ever goes
We can dance and sing your favorite song from memory
There won’t be electricity and maybe we can stay
Together there forever or at least for a couple of days
We’ll go to a place where the sun is brighter
And the weight of the world is brighter
I can learn you how to fish before we go
And you can learn to light a fire
And me…
I wanna take you with me, across the biggest ocean
To a sunny place, no one ever goes
We can dance and sing your favorite song from memory
We’ll make some electricity
You and me, across the biggest ocean
To a sunny place, no one ever goes
We can dance and sing your favorite song through memory
There won’t be electricity and maybe we can stay
We’ll do it in the ocean like we did St. Patrick’s day
Together there forever or at least for a couple of days
