Setting Up Shop

Setting Up Shop - Aloha

Street lights flicker and die

I think it's time to come inside

It's been a while

I want to hear your pointy shoes

Tapping on the hardwood

These empty homes

We can make them good

We've got a sleeping bag

A wind-up clock and a puffy coat

For most of us

Ain't a lump in our throats

We were sixteen people

Setting up shop

Praying that a little rain

Would keep us here another day

Knock yeah knock

We're coming to the city

Like we never forgot it

To wait for trees

For the cover of leaves

Takes more time than we've got

And I could drink the rain all day

The roof will be ours

Your hair will take hours to drain

The echo of the walls makes you loud

You're welcome to shout

But up to my ears

The lightest sounds will come out

Now we're just two people

Living in a house

Our chimney throwing signs

The garden growing rings

And wind to carry everything
