You said something funny and it stayed in the air
We kept on bringing it back for the rest of the night
I never could get the same inflection that you had or the way you cocked your head
But I laughed my way to bed and I wish I'd stayed
You always make a joke and you take it way too far
Cause you want to see me break
It's a risk you have to take
I'd pay to see the faces that you make
Every day we take a walk with our big black dog
And you catch all the sun with your hard working hands
I love to hear you talk about the finer things in life and see the light in your face
Settle into place where it always was
Then you say something funny and it flies through the air
And we keep on bringing it back for the rest of the night
I try my best to get the same inflection that you had but it's never quite right
And that gets us laughing even more
Just say something funny and let hang in the air
And well keep on bringing it back for the rest of the year
