Lyrics Royal - Make Do And Mend

Royal

Nights like these feel too big for me
On this endless stretch of apartment sheets
But still the chains of the snowless streets sing to me
And it seems to be
That every night for at least the last few weeks
You hold me close and my heart admits defeat
And with a slowing pace of beats, it hums the day complete and I fall asleep
You’re the only habit I won’t break
The only set of vacancies I save
And you deserve a reverence I can’t pay
Now ever morning I can hear you chase
The monsters of your waking hours away
You turn to me and say
«Baby boy, it hurts to have to wait.»
And for the next few months that I’m away
You feel the ground below you start to shake
You say «There's nothing I can do
The bruises are more black that they are blue.»
You’re the only habit I won’t break
The only set of vacancies I save
And you deserve a reverence I can’t pay
