Lyrics

Faded Friday fatigue on our faces
Leaves a trace on wrinkled pillowcases
Fairy dust descending in the sunbeams
You hide your coffee breath kisses from me
I fiddle with the bands ‘round our fingers, and I say,
“It’s okay, we’re tethered now”

Drippy cheeks and soaking Sunday clothes
Windshield wipers swipe our stormy overtones
Every heavy thought and shameful word
Sinks us deeper in a world of hurt
Your hand finds mine as we watch the rainfall, and you say,
“We’re okay, we’re just weathered down”

And you say,
“It’s okay, there’s no need to drown
It’s okay, we have said our vows
It’s okay, we’re tethered now”

East coast swinging in our ankle socks
Late night arguments and baby talk
Mental breakdowns on the city bus
Birthday daffodils and wanderlust
We ebb and flow on moonlit sea, and I know
It’s okay, we’re tethered now

It’s okay
It’s okay
It’s okay
