Ben Kweller Thirteen Lyrics

Thirteen Lyrics

We've been in the rain

We've been on the mountain

We've been round
the fire



In fancy hotels

Drank water from farm wells

We sang with the choir



I kissed your dry lips

We jumped
off the high cliffs

And splashed down below



Skin to skin

In the salty river

Made love in the shadows

Woooah ooh



Read books to each other

Read the mind of the other

Flew one
thousand jets



We laughed and we cried

At movies and real
life

And all our ridiculous bets



We danced in the moonlight
at midnight

We pressed against back doors and wooden floors

And you
never faked it



And frequently

We ignored our love

But
we could never mistake it

Oooh ooh



We met on the front
porch

Fell in love on the phone

Without the physical wreck



You gave me the necklace

That used to hang

Around your
mothers neck



We questioned religions

Gave bread to the
pigeons

We learned how to pray



We stood by the ocean

Turned our hearts into one

We laid in bed all day

Heeey



We skipped on the sidewalk

Skipped stones on the water

We
skipped town



We've seen the sunrise with new eyes

We've seen
the damage of gossip and true lies

We've seen the sun go down



Had passionate makeouts

With passionate freakouts

We built this
world of our own



It was in the back of a taxi

When you told
me you loved me

And that I wasnt alone
