Good Bones

She calls him Boo, his name is John
They met in college when
They both we're looking just to
Find themselves and then move on

And John, he noticed the girl in the purple coat
He looked into her face, her heart would race
She called him "pretty eyes" back then, she love him so

You never know exactly what you're
Building in this life
Seems everybody's blueprint's
Gotten faded, torn and stained despite
The little things that keep us feeling loved and not alone
That life they're building there
It's got good bones

See, their foundation was becoming best friends
Staring at clouds and looking for shapes
Or laughing at silly things
His shoulder keeping her safe

Now it's been years of building side by side
Their precious family
Two daughters, their fur babies
Now this anniversary...

You never know exactly what you're
Building in this life
Seems everybody's blueprint's
Gotten faded, torn and stained despite
The little things that keep us feeling loved and not alone
That life they're building there
It's got good bones

Some days you have to roll those plans up
Set them on a shelf
Cause the only thing that matters now is
How this person that I trust
Knows and loves me back
As my true self

You never know exactly what you're
Building in this life
Seems everybody's blueprint's
Gotten faded, torn and stained despite
The little things that keep us feeling loved and not alone
That life they're building there
It's got good bones
