I see you looking out the window, and It's hard to say we've got it good
we've been scratching out a living so long, we chewed right through the wood
we got married young, no one does that anymore
they all said we did it because we are poor, but I know we had what they're still looking for
they all want good love, love like ours
though we may make camp in the ordinary darkness
we build the most famous of fires
not all that shines keeps you warm, and many in the night will chase the moon
when I see just how lost I could be, I thank my lucky star that I found you
let them whisper when they see us, let them think that they are right
I'll smile as they pass us with their fistfull of matches,
it’s you with whom I choose to spend the night
Chorus
settling down, settling down, settling down isn't settling at all
settling down, settling down, settling down isn't settling at all
I just want good love
so come away from the window, and look inside to my heart
I worry too about getting through the day, but it's been a long time since I have feared the dark
