18th Floor

I've got a love, glistens in the moonlight

East side of the city where it's a little less bright

And I don't usually fall hard but this time

I'm burning up like bare feet on concrete in the summertime

When it was our time, we go hand in hand

And fell asleep with the stars and the waves on the sand

Felt like another land, that I would never understand

Getting dizzy in my head

But it came to a halt, within a minute or two, when

Your time was up, your motherland, she was calling for you

You packed up your bags, tied up your shoes

Locked pinkies together and said, "I'll see you soon"

I know that you want to go high, and so do I

So we'll keep this alive, keep this alive

You said that you want to go far and so will I

So we'll shoot for the stars, shoot for the stars

It's good to leave, to love a little more

She's been skipping my breathe, she doesn't even know it yet

And how many times can I say that I miss you?

Not really something that I want to get used to but

I've been thinking about the days to come, we'll lay in the sun

Waking up late for the coffee run and

A couple worlds that are sitting on the tip of my tongue

I'm breathing easy but I'm getting kind of heavy in my lungs

I know that you want to go high, and so do I

So we'll keep this alive, keep this alive, yeah

You said that you want to go far and so will I

So we'll shoot for the stars, shoot for the stars

Now we're here, sitting on your bedroom floor

I feel like I'm high, somewhere on the eighteenth floor

Was that a metaphor? I'm not really sure

But all I know is that it's you Honey that I adore

Right hands got a ticket to fly over the Pacific

And you wouldn't want to miss it

'Cause I'll miss your coastal kisses when I'm feeling low

Somewhere back at home

I'll sneak some of your love in checked baggage below

And I don't really know, how long it's gonna take

For this world of ours to clean up its mistakes

But we'll sit and wait, yeah, we'll sit and wait

It's on the horizon, I can see the better days

I know that you want to go high, and so do I

So we'll keep this alive, keep this alive, yeah

You said that you want to go far and so will I

So we'll shoot for the stars, shoot for the stars
