Khaki Cuffs - Ephemeral Lyrics

Remember those nights we'd lie awake
In my bedroom, you'd play uke, and I'd play bass
Now it's funny, looking back
The times with you were the best ones I've ever had
And now we stay, in my room
With my Christmas lights turned on and the spotlight always on you
It's bittersweet, the melody always resolving on the minor, and it's always on repeat
Let's take a walk up to north campus again
I'll tell you stories about college and you'll gossip about your friends
And we'll all laugh
There's not a trouble in the world
But 18 hours separation makes the feeling a little worse
What can I do to keep the feeling when you're gone?
In Florida away from here when I feel so put-upon
You're my source, of happiness, everything good
What can I do to feel this way when you leave like I know you would?
And now we stay, in my room
With my Christmas lights turned on and the spotlight always on you
It's bittersweet, the melody always resolving on the minor, and it's always on repeat
It's on repeat
What can I do?
Cause when I think of happiness, I solely think of you
You've gotta go, 9 o'clock tomorrow morning
But this feeling in my stomach starts to make me so concerned
I can't let you go, so many things we need to do
Before we're a thousand miles apart and I'm too far away from you
You need to stay, I'll fly you out from Baltimore
I'm just so desperate for our time together, I'm always needing more
Now I'm alone, in my room
With my Christmas lights turned off but the spotlight is still on you
It's bittersweet, the melody
Always resolving on the minor, syncopate with my heartbeat
