Ours

Elevator buttons and morning air,

Stranger silence makes me wanna take the stairs.

If you were here we'd laugh about their vacant stares,

But right now my time is theirs.

Seems like there's always someone who disapproves.

They'll judge it like they know about me and you

And the verdict comes from those with nothing else to do

The jury's out, my choice is you.

So don't you worry your pretty little mind,

People throw rocks at things that shine

and life makes love look hard.

The stakes are high, the water's rough

But this love is ours

You never know what people have up their sleeves,

Ghosts from your past gonna jump out at me.

Lurking in the shadows with their lipgloss smiles,

But I don't care.

Cause right now you're mine.

And you'll say,

So don't you worry your pretty little mind,

People throw rocks at things that shine

and life makes love look hard.

The stakes are high, the water's rough

But this love is ours

And it's not theirs to speculate if it's wrong and

And your hands are tough but they are where mine belong in.

I'll fight their doubts and give you faith with this song for you

Cause I love the gap between your teeth

and I love the riddles that you speak.

And any snide remarks from my father about your tattoos will be ignored.

Cause my heart is yours

So don't you worry your pretty little mind,

People throw rocks at things that shine

But they can't take what's ours

They can't take what's ours

The stakes are high, the water's rough

But this love is ours
