[Verse 1]
Let's dance in your kitchen babe
I’ll whisper that I love you - scream it in my heart
We'll make love in the dark babe
You're my favourite person, your laugh quench my thirst for
A joy that I knew once
I got so much regret can’t you see that I've changed?
There's a future I dream of
I give up this art game, get a good job
And we eat out on Fridays
I got money to burn, it's modest but I earn it
I got money to burn, it's modest but I earn it

[Chorus]
When I look back it's all colour
You reflect light and shines brighter

[Verse 2]
So I drove to the big smoke
Got a small room near the Balmoral shops
And I put my head down
Tried to forget, tried to run up that hill
But we all like to binge drink
And a girl made me think, when she shared all her problems
About life's greatest happiness
It's whanau, it’s family, it’s bigger than us
It's whanau it’s family it's bigger than us

[Chorus 2]
When I look back it's all colour
You reflect light and shines brighter
It's whanau it’s family it's bigger than us


[Bridge]
Let's dance in the kitchen babe
Let's dance in the kitchen babe
We can fight about life again
We can fight about life again
There's a love and it's so strong
There's a love and it's so strong
And it grows each day your gone
And it grows each day your gone

It's whanau, it's family

[Verse 3]
If it's truth then it's lasting
Like the insights we gleaned from our teenage LSD
And I know when your heart speaks
'cause you're like the lady and I'm like the lover
'cause you're like the lady and I'm like the lover
