"Genesis" lyrics

Our friends sing karaoke
They're messing up the words
My eyes are on you only
As you're mouthing the verse
I think you're too nice to me
Nicer than I deserve
I'm twirling like a new leaf
To a song in reverse
It's like nothing I've ever heard

And we're kissing like a couple kids in the backseat
Touching you is waking up from a bad dream
Don't you know that no one else ever had me
As much as you have me
And it feels like a first, after everything
Only us on the Earth like it's Genesis
Making love like we're sure we invented it
We invented it

You're haloed in the porch light
We talk for hours on end
What is it 'bout a warm night
That makes you feel seventeen again?
Starting over at the beginning
Peeling denim off of our skin and
I think I get it now
Nothing before this counts

We're kissing like a couple kids in the backseat
Touching you is waking up from a bad dream
Don't you know that no one else ever had me
As much as you have me
And it feels like a first, after everything
Only us on the Earth like it's Genesis
Making love like we're sure we invented it
We invented it

And it feels like a first, after everything
Only us on the Earth like it's Genesis
Making love like we're sure we invented it
We invented it
