Jason Mraz - 0% Interest lyrics

Our friends on the front porch
Well they're telling jokes and they
Swing swiftly towards happier times
Expending lines and finding more
Energy for the effort
And getting distance from that
Front porch spotlight
But us we found peace in shadows
Long enough to see the monsters rise
Candy's got some space to fill in her
Daydream living high on yesterday's lies
Talking to me about some 0% interest and
How she got a better deal than the next guy

And the way the lightning shocked us when
We were lost and we were looking
Down that long Missouri highway your hair was
Longer then and now I can remember
Say now I remember oh so well

Oh the roads unencumbered by
Cats they're burning like
Wet matches through my miracle mile mind
You left your thumbprint inside me
Now for months it
Seems but mine only brushes your soft surface
And somehow somehow it leaves me listless
My tongue curls under my lips oh oh yes
So I can't speak to tell you of
The months before I met you

And the way, oh the truth it locked us
Oh right about the time after
The lightning shocked us when we were young
When we were young and missing
Round that small New England
Byway our lives they
Were sheltered then and now I can remember
Say now well I remember oh so well
Almost too well

Well it's not even being about that
Anymore I gotta get you down
Those tiny fragments of
Perfection they please, me in a time
Unchanged when it's not the same
Beginning or along awaited end
If I knew all the words I
Would write myself out of here
If I was all the colors I would paint
You pretty in gold in a picture
So I'm told little sister
So now I'm sold little sister
Why don't you tell me about the sunsets
In Sweden and the laws of Eden
And how you were the rock of Gibraltar
And how they called you foxy

Well that's another whole box of pandora's
That's another whole box of them ties
Slide your foot off the gas before we
Crash right back into the median
Right back into the median, the median lo oh
It separates
Our house from the middle of the street
It separates our house from the
Middle of the street talking about our house

Is on the front porch telling jokes and
They swing swiftly towards happier times
Expending lines and finding more
Energy for the effort
And getting distance from that front porch
Spotlight
But us we found peace in shadows long
Enough to see a monster die
We all need to find a little space in
Our daydreams long enough and just so long
Long enough, just as long
Just so long as it's long
Enough is it long enough?
Is it long enough for me? Long
Enough for me to chew on
If it isn't if it isn't if it ain't if
It don't if it can't then it won'
And that's just the way that it goes
