Thirteen - Ben Kweller

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 shadow 
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 
In our ridiculous beds 

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 
Fed bread to the pigeons 
We learned how to pray 

We stood by the ocean 
Turned our hearts in to 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 
And 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
