The Atmosphere

Jon McLaughlin · Promising Promises [2012]

Before we lose the light of day

Before our words take their place

Before the mystery has been erased

Let's close our eyes



Before we are who we'll become

Before it's all been said and done

And the truth I will swear upon

Fades to lies



Let's ignore the end growing near

Tell me things I wanna hear



If we're going down

Baby don't tell me now

I just wanna stay high

Up in the sky flying around

We can watch all our fears

Burning up in the atmosphere

Tell me why is it hard to believe

It will always be you and me?



After we see the morning light

After a million sleepless nights

After us, after all this time

Let's close our eyes



And ignore the end growing near

Tell me things I wanna hear



If we're going down

Baby don't tell me now

I just wanna stay high

Up in the sky flying around

We can watch all our fears

Burning up in the atmosphere

Tell me why is it hard to believe

It will always be you

And why is it so hard to believe

Baby I still believe

It will always be you and me
