Another time, another land,
If our God had other plans
We’d meet up inside a cafe
In Southampton
And we’d smile and we’d nod,
But we’d both have dirty thoughts
And we’d steal away
And make some magic happen
Something raw and something real,
The pure erotica we’d feel
Would make heavens shake
And mountains quake for ages
And we’d never leave our bed
As we’d act out what’s in our heads
As the wildfire that we lit
Consumes and rages
But God doesn’t need devils
So he chose another level
He’s put us both through hell
To teach a lesson
One day we’ll see our trials
Are the reason for our smiles
And we’ll count all of our sorrow
As a blessing
Sometimes it’s like a prison
This suburban life we’re living
With our schedules and our sick kids
And no vacation
But a quiet life alone
In the blue light of our phones
Is a tiny price to pay
For our salvation
The love that we’ve weaved
Is something I’d never leave
It’s got legs, it’s gonna last
It’s going strong
Cuz when rain is coming down
And days kick us to the ground
There’s someone home for you
When the streetlights come on
Cuz God doesn’t need devils
So he chose another level
He’s put us both through hell
To teach a lesson
One day we’ll see our trials
As the reason for our smiles
And we’ll count all of our sorrow
As a blessing
