"Nowhere To Be" lyrics

"Nowhere To Be"

Promises we made before a cross
We were losing our religion
But hoping for a Pentecost
Happiness, oh, how would you define?
It's not owning your own island
It's simply putting your needs before mine

I can't believe
When it all falls down you're still with me
I think we've arrived
Now, we let it slide
Nowhere to be

Commitment is a terrifying word
Some say it's impossible
Others tell you it's absurd
But with you I can have it both ways
The space I need to be alone
And a best friend I wake up to everyday

I can't believe
When it all falls down you're here with me
How many miles
Till we realize there's nowhere to be?

I can't believe years of hustlin'
Years without sleep
I can't believe
We got nowhere to be

Talk is cheap, eventually
This engine will run out of steam
The mystery will slip away
We hate to practice, love to preach
But I've already been down on one knee
What's the secret to keeping the flame?

I can't believe
When it all falls down you're here with me
How many miles
Till we realize there's nowhere to be?

I can't believe, that everything is right
Everything is right here for free
I can't believe that a millionaire can try
But money cannot by this honesty

It's just you and me
There's nowhere to be
Nowhere to be
