Enough For Us

We would play our music by candlelight,
When that burned down we’d use the moon.
I’d crow up the sun
you’d blow your saxophone to kingdom come.

That was enough for us.
From here I see how much that was
Now that the world’s got in my eyes.
Back then when time stayed home
With love safe on the radio
It was easy to be wise.

Serenades for girls on the avenue
Blue bottled songs for the night.
We’d close up that bar out on the Metropole
well alright!

That was enough for us.
From here I see how much that was
Now that the world’s got in my eyes.
Back then when time stayed home
With love safe on the radio
It was easy to be wise.

Here we stand, drunk and remembering
Those dusty old dreams somehow unsung.
I forgot the words, you hocked your saxophone
oh, to be young.

That was enough for us.
From here I see how much that was
Now that the world’s got in my eyes.
Back then when time stayed home
With love safe on the radio
It was easy to be wise.
