Mono No Aware

Still awake, eyes still closed
The feel of your face on my collarbone
And I tuck you in right there on the couch
And you look so nice, you look so nice
The aftermath, we got friends on the carpet
And one in the bath, a going away party
And I always knew you would
Life is good, life is good

Sing, oh, oh-oh
I know you're gonna do just fine
Sing oh, oh-oh
I know you're gonna do just fine

It's time to pass this life before we go away
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware," sing
Ooh, I'll follow my gut and I won't be silent
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware"

Moon's out tonight, turn the speakers so
We can hear it outside, feet on the grass
In the firelight, something about it feels so right
It feels so right, uh
It brings to mind a fire that faded a long, long time ago
You know, we did every little thing we could
Life is good, life is good

I say, oh, oh
You and me, we're gonna be alright
Oh, oh-oh
I said, you and me, we're gonna be alright

It's time to pass us by before we go away
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware," sing
Ooh, I'll follow my gut and I won't be silent
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware"

Now hold on
The past (is gone)
This is the life I got left (wash away in the river)
(Wash away in the water)
The rain runs down my skin (it's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
And the rain runs down my skin (it's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water

It's time to pass this life before we go away
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware," sing
Ooh, I'll follow my gut and I won't be silent
Sing, "Mono no aware," sing, "Mono no aware"

(It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
Rain falls down my skin (It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
Rain falls down my skin (It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
This is the life I've got left (Rain falls down my skin)
(It's gone)
Wash away in the river
Wash away in the water
