Josh Cumbee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The first time I saw your face
I wouldnít trade anything else for that time and place

Youíre so good at keeping me awake
And when we lock eyes I swear I could stay up for days

I get lost in the little things little things little things you do
Got me fallin a little more little more little more for you

I could do this for a lifetime
I'm just a young man growing old trying not to let this fly by
Spend it all on you go broke everythingíll be alright
Wish I had more to give you than a lifetime

lifetime, lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
lifetime, lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
lifetime, lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
time, time, time, time
I could do this for a
I could do this for a

I knew my heart could break
Never knew someone could fill up the empty space
And I know were gonna make mistakes
Hopefully they turn into favorite memories

I get lost in the little things little things little things you do
Got me fallin a little more little more little more for you
I get lost in the little things little things little things you do
Got me fallin a little more little more little more for you

I could do this for a lifetime
I'm just a young man growing old trying not to let this fly by
Spend it all on you go broke everythingíll be alright
Wish I had more to give you than a lifetime

lifetime, lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
lifetime, lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
lifetime, lifetime, lifetime, lifetime
time, time, time, time




I could do this for a
I could do this for a
