Verse 1
There’s a mountain of laundry
The lawn isn’t mowed
There’s some things out of place, don’t mean our love is a waste
But you say that you’re hitting the road
I know new love is clean
But there’s a fine line between
Something shiny and new versus cold and untrue
The trimmed-up grass ain’t always so green
Pre-Chorus
There’s something pulling you away
our love is old and worn you say
I’d describe it another way
Chorus
That lived in look
Baby Don’t be ashamed of
That Lived in look
Love ain’t always so clean
There’s a blizzard of sheets on the bed where we laid
We created a storm with the love that we made
When we did the earth trembled and shook
Our love’s such a beautiful mess
it’s got that lived in look
Verse 2
I love that puddle of clothes
in a heap on the floor
Cause that only meant we weren't dressed anymore
But you packed it all and walked out the door
Something I never knew
though things are sloppy it's true
I should have thrown out the trash a long time ago
I realize the clutter was you
Pre-Chorus
So run and join some sterile crowd
there’s a silver lining to this cloud
one thing’s always made me proud
Chorus
That lived in look
You were always ashamed of
That Lived in look
Love ain’t always so clean
There was a blizzard of sheets on the bed where we laid
We created a storm with the love that we made
When we did the earth trembled and shook
Our love was such a beautiful mess
it had that lived in look
Bridge
You tried to iron my wrinkles
but I’ve earned every one
My crow’s feet are clear cause now I smile ear to ear
cause now my housecleaning is done
Chorus
That lived in look
You were always ashamed of
That Lived in look
Love ain’t always so clean
There was a blizzard of sheets on the bed where we laid
We created a storm with the love that we made
When we did the earth trembled and shook
Our love was such a beautiful mess
We always had a comfortable mess
Our love was such a beautiful mess
it had that lived in look
