Emily Saliers - Power of Two lyrics

Now the parking lot is empty Everyone's gone someplace I pick you up and in the trunk I've packed A cooler and a two day suitcase Cause there's a place we like to drive Way out in the country Five miles out of the city limit we're singing And your hand's upon my knee So we're okay We're fine Baby I'm here to stop your crying Chase all the ghosts from your head I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed Smarter than the tricks played on your heart We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart Adding up the total of a love that's true Multiply life by the power of two You know the things that I am afraid of I'm not afraid to tell And if we ever leave a legacy It's that we loved each other well Cause I've seen the shadows of so many people Trying on the treasures of youth But a road that fancy and fast Ends in a fatal crash And I'm glad we got off To tell you the truth Cause we're okay We're fine Baby I'm here to stop your crying Chase all the ghosts from your head I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed Smarter than the tricks played on your heart We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart Adding up the total of a love that's true Multiply life by the power of two All the shiny little trinkets of temptation (Make new friends) Something new instead of something old (But keep the old) All you gotta do is scratch beneath the surface (But remember what is gold) And it's fools gold (What is gold) Fools gold (What is gold) Fools gold Now we're talking about a difficult thing And your eyes are getting wet I took us for better and I took us for worse Don't you ever forget it Now the steel bars between me and a promise Suddenly bend with ease The closer I'm bound in love to you The closer I am to free So we're okay We're fine Baby I'm here to stop your crying Chase all the ghosts from your head I'm stronger than the monster beneath your bed Smarter than the tricks played on your heart We'll look at them together then we'll take them apart Adding up the total of a love that's true Multiply life by the power of two
