Dylan Thomas Gavin - Same Age Same Town

There's a way out
In the way back of the bar
Enter sign in neon lights to guide me in
They want me down the hall
I played a set tonight with two songs about love
And one about never giving up on time
As the pace of it slowed I could see it in your smile
You hadn't let go of my eyes

We're the same age from the same town
God knows I've never tried so hard
To be in your days to stay at your house
Maybe just till dark
We had that special kind of hunger
The kind that older folk always swear to be real
When you asked me for my number
I forgot how to feel

We took the way out
In the way back after dark
Met up in the kerosene light
To take a walk under the stars
It'd been a decade or so since I had you this close
My fingers were frozen you were shivering cold
But I knew in the moment you felt like coming home

We're still the same age from the same town
God knows why it took so long to be
Your safe place without doubt your last date in this old town
We had that special kind of hunger
And every breath escaped like a sigh of relief
When you'd hold a little closer
And swear the reason you were made was me

Remember I would call and you'd say darling meet me when the sun's down
Rooftop on your car by my old house
Your name is on my heart and all I think about
Is how you know when you know you know you know
