Nobody Here But Us

Nobody Here But Us lyrics

Verse 1

Tuesday noon in the flat
You fold towels downstairs
I count the grey van
Third pass past the stairs

The man across the street
At the laundromat window
Watched us all week
And you're the only one I half believe, though

Pre-Chorus

Blinds half shut
Sun on the floor
He keeps a notebook
Like he wants more

I keep it simple
I keep it true
You hear that window?
It hears us too

Chorus

Nobody here but us
Nobody here but us
The blinds stay low
And the cars keep count

Nobody here but us
Nobody here but us
Say it back now
Nobody here but us (us)

Verse 2

You laugh, then you look
Like you know the score
I don't sell stories
I just count the cars

Grey van again
Same dent in the door
If he's watching us
He's got a front-row seat to the war

Pre-Chorus

Blinds half shut
Sun on the floor
He keeps a notebook
Like he wants more

I keep it simple
I keep it true
You hear that window?
It hears us too

Chorus

Nobody here but us
Nobody here but us
The blinds stay low
And the cars keep count

Nobody here but us
Nobody here but us
Say it back now
Nobody here but us (us)

Bridge

You take the steps
Like nothing's wrong
I tap the table
We hold on

Nylon strings
And clapping hands
For one small minute
We understand

Chorus

Nobody here but us
Nobody here but us
The blinds stay low
And the cars keep count

Nobody here but us
Nobody here but us
Say it back now
Nobody here but us (us)
