"Lush Life" lyrics

We were running through the streets at two in the morning
Laughing at the nothing, laughing at the everything
You grabbed my hand and pulled me faster through the city
And I forgot every reason I had ever been unhappy

The lights were all a blur above the cobblestones
We had nowhere we were going, nowhere we called home
But standing here beside you in the middle of the chaos
I realized that the richest life is this, just this, just us

This is a lush life, lush life
As long as you're with me
Even if the stars fall, I don't mind
Lush life, lush life
Holding onto your hand
Hoping this night never ends

We sat down on the fountain steps and caught our breath together
You were talking about nothing and it sounded like forever
The city moved around us like we were the still point
Every ordinary moment with you feels like the whole point

I used to think that living well meant something you could measure
Thought it came with a price tag, thought it came with pressure
But here with you and nothing but this night around us
I think the lush life was the one that somehow found us

This is a lush life, lush life
As long as you're with me
Even if the stars fall, I don't mind
Lush life, holding onto your hand
Hoping this night never ends
Oh oh oh

Don't need the finest things
Don't need the grandest view
The only luxury I know
Is every moment next to you

This is a lush life, lush life
As long as you're with me
Even if the stars fall, I don't mind
Lush life, lush life
Holding onto your hand
Hoping this night never ends
