[Verse 1] You came home with flowers wrapped in brown I checked the date, you put your work bag down Said, "I saw these and I thought of you" I said, "Well, that's a lovely thing to do" We found the vase behind the cereal shelf Then you put that record on yourself [Pre-Chorus] It's a Wednesday, dinner's late We could wait for a bigger day But there's a little room beside the table And we're both still here, still able [Chorus] No occasion needed I don't need a reason To put my arms around you In the middle of the week No occasion needed Look at us, still meaning Every little thing we promised When we didn't know a thing Turn it up, pull me in Let's like our life while we're living it No occasion needed No occasion needed [Verse 2] The timer rings, we let the last song end You're still the person I would choose again Even when the bills are on the fridge And we can't remember where the spare key is You make me laugh the way you always could A normal night can still be very good [Chorus] No occasion needed I don't need a reason To put my arms around you In the middle of the week No occasion needed Look at us, still meaning Every little thing we promised When we didn't know a thing Turn it up, pull me in Let's like our life while we're living it No occasion needed No occasion needed [Bridge - piano and close vocal] I won't save the best of me For a photograph or anniversary You get the woman in an old T-shirt Dancing while the pasta burns [Instrumental breakbeat lift] [Final Chorus] No occasion needed I don't need a reason To put my arms around you In the middle of the week No occasion needed Love is in the repeating Of a hundred little choices That we make with tired feet Turn it up, pull me in Let's like our life while we're living it No occasion needed You're the reason, that's it
