LYRIC FOR SALE

By Josiah Vermont

Let’s get married, fly out
or drive from here to California
All I want is to love you down
and forget about the case
If we don’t make it in The Golden State
we can always cross the border
Start where they won’t know us
or recognize your face

Tara said she made it big but
we can’t take her road
She carries a heavy load and
everyone acts like they don’t know
She gets a million likes and hearts
but true love isn’t her future
Choosing money over love has her
going to sleep alone

If our pockets keep on leaking and it
keeps raining every day
I’d still choose you again
Just place your hand in mine
I’d pawn the diamond on my finger
to always be your shelter
Paradise is you with me
Every single time

Let’s get married and have kids
In a place like Sarasota
I want to catch each sunset with you
Over and over again
If we’re caught here before dawn
You can’t say I didn’t warn you
Paradise is always you
Don’t let this ever end
