We spent three months of our lives Together almost everyday In some formation We formed our own family Dysfunctional in all the usual ways We're all young And still in love with the world But terrified of our own lives It was a perfect mix We spent car rides together Squealing and singing, dancing and shouting Watching flamingoes sleep on lake shores And llamas grazing by the roadside We saw condors swooping overhead As we climbed what felt like mountains Compared to us Sleeping underneath more stars Than we had imagined were in the sky We got lost and found our ways back We got happy, waiting on lay-bys We got up At 4am, awoken by the sound of Out of tune harmonicas And your shouting We fell asleep To the sound of each other's heavy breathing Exhausted but satisfied Now we're apart But from our own bonds Woven like siblings, Like friends, Some of us like lovers And all we have left Are the photos we took together And the memories That I hope will last my lifetime

We spent three months of our lives Together almost everyday In some formation We formed our own family Dysfunctional in all the usual ways We're all young And still in love with the world But terrified of our own lives It was a perfect mix We spent car rides together Squealing and singing, dancing and shouting Watching flamingoes sleep on lake shores And llamas grazing by the roadside We saw condors swooping overhead As we climbed what felt like mountains Compared to us Sleeping underneath more stars Than we had imagined were in the sky We got lost and found our ways back We got happy, waiting on lay-bys We got up At 4am, awoken by the sound of Out of tune harmonicas And your shouting We fell asleep To the sound of each other's heavy breathing Exhausted but satisfied Now we're apart But from our own bonds Woven like siblings, Like friends, Some of us like lovers And all we have left Are the photos we took together And the memories That I hope will last my lifetime
