[Verse 1]
Warm and soothing
That's how I remember home
Walking into arms through the back door
Hearing voices I know well and long for
[Verse 2]
Cold and boozy
Our holiday in the Alps
Sitting in the lobby, mostly smoking
Choking on the woozy afternoon
[Chorus]
I'm reeling in the music and I've only had a few
And I'm afraid by the way we grow old
My darling
[Verse 3]
Abrupt, too moody
You're making our party list
I remember sulking on the sofa
For most of the winter we were strangers
[Verse 4]
Just one more to ease the ache
Before the night takes me
When you stay asleep on your side of the bed
Don't look at me, don't look at you
[Chorus]
I'm reeling in the music and I've only had a few
And I'm afraid by the way we grow old
My darling
Warm and soothing
That's how I remember home
Walking into arms through the back door
Hearing voices I know well and long for
[Verse 2]
Cold and boozy
Our holiday in the Alps
Sitting in the lobby, mostly smoking
Choking on the woozy afternoon
[Chorus]
I'm reeling in the music and I've only had a few
And I'm afraid by the way we grow old
My darling
[Verse 3]
Abrupt, too moody
You're making our party list
I remember sulking on the sofa
For most of the winter we were strangers
[Verse 4]
Just one more to ease the ache
Before the night takes me
When you stay asleep on your side of the bed
Don't look at me, don't look at you
[Chorus]
I'm reeling in the music and I've only had a few
And I'm afraid by the way we grow old
My darling
