Lanterns in the Hips（バージョン2）

Verse

Sun sets on the same two streets we used to run

Your shadow's longer now than my own

I count the houses where our shoulders met

Every one holds a fragment of us back then

Windows lit like lanterns in the hips

We keep the rhythm, even when we trip

Pre-Chorus

Do you remember which one it was that night?

The spark before the engine turned to light?

Is it still there, locked inside your chest?

Are we just a current waiting to be repressed?

Let me tell you again what I used to believe

That love will keep on finding us in the dark like this

Chorus

Lanterns in the hips where our shoulders used to meet

Every window still remembers which one was warm

We're not losing time, just shifting gears

Lanterns in the hips, and I'm still running down the street

Verse

I found your old guitar on a neighbor's porch

A little worse for wear but all its strings intact

I thought of every song we used to play

But the ones that really mattered are not where they used to be

The music stayed inside us even when it left the air

Every time I walk down Main Street, somebody leans against a car

With their arms up like the sunset on our shoulders used to be

It's the same four blocks but every face is different now

Except for yours and mine, where does the rest go?

Pre-Chorus

Do you remember which one it was that night?

The spark before the engine turned to light?

Is it still there, locked inside your chest?

Are we just a current waiting to be repressed?

Let me tell you again what I used to believe

That love will keep on finding us in the dark like this

Chorus

Lanterns in the hips where our shoulders used to meet

Every window still remembers which one was warm

We're not losing time, just shifting gears

Lanterns in the hips, and I'm still running down the street

Bridge

Maybe we weren't burning out so much as turning blue

Like a candle that doesn't flicker but stays lit for you

I'm standing here with my hands in my pockets now

But underneath this skin, I swear to God, it's still your hand and mine somehow

Chorus

Lanterns in the hips where our shoulders used to meet

Every window still remembers which one was warm

We're not losing time, just shifting gears

Lanterns in the hips, and I'm still running down the street

Outro

I'm not moving on, I'm just letting it find its place

In my chest this time instead of in some other space
