Hello

I've waited here for you

Everlong

Tonight

I throw myself into

And out of the red, out of her head, she sang

Come down

And waste away with me

Down with me

Slow how

You wanted it to be

I'm over my head, out of her head she sang

And I wonder, when I sing along with you

If everything could ever feel this real forever

If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you

You gotta promise not to stop when I say when

She sang

Breathe out

So I can breathe you in

Hold you in

And now

I know you've always been

Out of your head, out of my head I sang

And I wonder when I sing along with you

If everything could ever feel this real forever

If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you

You gotta promise not to stop when I say when

She sang

So, dad would take the Sundays off

And that's the only time he could ever get any rest

And so, because we were loud on Sundays

He'd make us hold his construction boots over our head, 'til we'd sleep

And they were really heavy boots and I used to say, "Dad, come on, please"

And like start crying, 'cause they're too heavy

And I wonder

If everything could ever feel this real forever

If anything could ever be this good again

The only thing I'll ever ask of you

You gotta promise not to stop when I say when
