"Mono No Aware" lyrics

Still awake, eyes still closed
The feel of your face on my collarbone
And I tuck you in right there on the couch
And you look so nice, you look so nice
The aftermath, we got friends on the carpet
And one in the bath, a going-away party
And I always knew you would
Life is good, life is good

Sing oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh
I know you're gonna do just fine
Sing oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh
I know you're gonna do just fine

It's time to pass this life before we go away
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware," sing
Ooh, I'll follow my gut and I won't be silent
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware"

Moon's out tonight
Turn the speakers so we can hear it outside
Feet on the grass in the firelight
Something about it feels so right
It feels so right
Uh
It brings to mind a fire that faded a long, long time ago
You know, we did every little thing we could
Life is good, life is good

I sing oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh
You and me, we're gonna be alright
Oh, whoa-oh-oh
I said you and me, we're gonna be alright

It's time to pass this life before we go away
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware," sing
Ooh, I'll follow my gut and I won't be silent
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware"

Now hold on
The past (Is gone)
(Wash away in the river)
This is the life I got left
(Wash away in the water)
The rain falls down my skin (It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
And the rain falls down my skin (It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water

It's time to pass this life before we go away
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware," sing
Ooh, I'll follow my gut and I won't be silent
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware"

(It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
Rain falls down my skin (It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
Rain falls down my skin (It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
This is the life I've got left (Rain falls down my skin)
(It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
