"Cardboard Box Apartment" lyrics

"Cardboard Box Apartment"

We live apart
With our parents at home
Your mum is great, but she doesn't leave us alone
You know it's true
What's it been now?
Three years thereabouts
I know we're young, but there's so much that I wanna learn about
Mostly you

I don't think that we should be apart
Maybe that's a big next step, but I think we should start
With one big city and a cardboard box apartment
I think we should be two halves

So move out with me
When we make this place our home, then you'll see
Under city lights we'll have all that we need
And living hand to mouth ain't perfect
But when you're smiling, then it's worth it
Move out with me

Ain't got the cash
The market is bad
I know the reasons that I should stay home with my mum and dad
Too many to count
We're not just in love
We function as one
We make us better at life, and I think that I for one
Wanna test it out

I don't think that we should be apart
Maybe that's a big next step, but I think we should start
With one big city and a cardboard box apartment
I think we should be two halves

So move out with me
When we make this place our home, then you'll see
Under city lights we'll have all that we need
And living hand to mouth ain't perfect
But when you're smiling, then it's worth it
Move out with me
Move out with me

Yeah, we'll make room for each other
In our seven foot cupboard
We'll go diving into debt
So we can dive under the covers together
Adventure's never felt better
We'll carve ourselves out a life
Wearing matching sweaters
And I'll say

I'm not looking for an investment
Maybe
I'm just looking for my all time
Baby, it's you
It's always been you

So won't you move out with me
When we make this place our home, then you'll see
Under city lights we'll have all that we need
And living hand to mouth ain't perfect
But when you're smiling, then it's worth it
Move out with me

Move out with me
Can we move out?
Can we move out?
Oh, move out with me
