I wanna write you a letter, 
i'd start with how it looks like rain, 
i'd tell you things you'd forget, 
when everything's the same - 
i could write a novel, 
it will be for our age, because we always stuck together, on the same page - 
scribbling on paper, glancing at the clock, hoping time goes faster, except when i'm with you - 
slamming our lockers, walking down the stairs, bending over laughing, waiting to be late - 
my heart is the archives, the album of our lives, open me up i'll be there, any time you need, any time - you need - tearing pictures from magazines, and you're far away, but you are the only thing, that's keeping me awake - grabbing jacket sleeves, stepping on heels, pushing my way past them, while searching for you - matching our footsteps, never tracing tracks, stuck in the mud, getting frustrated - my heart is the archives, the album of our lives, open me up i'll be there, any time you need, any time - any time - you need - my dreams go just like my days, i'm not living history, i'm our living history, phrase by phrase - who can tell where we'll end up, and if i'll be with you, i know i've written a novel here, but it's just what i do, but it's just what i do - my heart is the archives, the album of our lives, open me up i'll be there, any time you need, any time - any time - any time - you need - my heart is the archives, the album of our lives, open me up i'll be there, any time you need, any time - any time - any time - you need
