Verse 1

You stepped off the ferry in your Sunday shoes

I was counting all the minutes I had left to lose

You waved from the corner with a paper crown

And every little worry in me tumbled down

Pre-Chorus

We took the long way past the market square

You spun beneath the awning like you owned the air

Chorus

Oh, when you’re here, the whole room turns around

(Here, here!)

You make a quiet heart get up and leave the ground

(Up, up!)

We sing it out, we laugh until we’re hoarse

You and me together, taking joy by force

Verse 2

You told me ’bout the garden on your rooftop flat
