We Walk Each Other Home Lyrics

Well the morning lit the stairs
You were at the last step looking inside me
I had no idea today we'd have to set you free
Now tomorrow my alarm won't bark
And I won't know just who to let inside
No more hanging at the bus stop
No more cigarette rides

Even in my darkest moments
I see the shimmer of your life

There's a rocket in the chamber
Getting drove beside my bed
That's for rabid wolves and banshees
But not the sirens in my head
There's a swallow in the bottle in the cupboard
Sure reach for peace
Both the poison and the prayer
Oh sweet promise of release

Even in my darkest moments
I see the shimmer of your memory
Even in my darkest moments
I start to shimmer in your life

We walk each other home
We walk each other home
We walk each other home
We walk each other home

Sunset to the lamplight
Let's make some shadows on this street
Behind every door and window
A thousand stories we'll never see

Skipping stones old fishing holes
Electrophonic radio
Sticks and bones buried and thrown
I'll be your stepping stone

We walk each other home
We walk each other home
We walk each other home
We walk each other home
