Across
  1. 5. The whole idea of running off (together) and going on adventures and being free to go and explore and experience things and not be tied down and be able to leave bad things behind us
  2. 7. We both wanted to get away, to go on adventures, to go experience more than we had, our souls recognized in each other a kindred spirit and we got so close so fast and felt like we’d known each other for so long
  3. 8. Little coincidences, quiet moments together at home, and falling in love being a beautiful thing
  4. 11. Finding a home in someone, that feeling that comes after the ‘honeymoon phase’ where emotions have turned from roaring flames to hot coals that will keep burning for a very long time
  5. 12. Being in a long distance relationship and how it’s hard but that there’s hope of it ending and the little things you can do to make it seem like less of a big deal in the meantime
  6. 21. You are this, and I’ve been pretty cynical about dating in the past, but you've made things so wonderful and easy, and I’m not going to worry about a crash, because it’s a dreamland
  7. 23. Our biggest adventure so far
  8. 25. Loving you has been a lot like taking a leap of faith off a cliff, not necessarily knowing what would happen but not caring about the consequences and going all in as fast as we could because we were so ready for the adventure that the other would be
  9. 26. Stars and I’ll be there for you, and I want to find adventure and renew my love for you with you
  10. 30. The general sense of being in love and how I want to be your Right Hand Man in all your adventures.
  11. 31. Being with you feels like flying away, feels like flying and like I can just keep being me, in all my clumsy, awkward, oblivious glory
  12. 33. The feeling of that first date, watching the stars and not caring about the time. The excitement of first dating, and how we recapture it even now
  13. 36. For the first time I'm free in a relationship to still be me, without constraint or shame. We are adventurous and excitable and ambitious; right or wrong does lack depth, and finally have someone I can talk to about that and everything else with
  14. 37. Changing from running from being something to get away from problems to running with someone you love because you love them and you just love to be on the move.
Down
  1. 1. We are not going to settle for mediocrity, settling down and having a house with a white picket fence and 2.5 kids - we’re going to go out, take the world by storm, have adventures, be and live and enjoy and do. We aren’t going to listen to the world, what they say. We’re going to do things our way, because small people can’t tell us what to do
  2. 2. All I want to do is run away with you. Will you run away with me? My answer is yes <3
  3. 3. Our song!
  4. 4. Neither of us wants to stay or settle, we want to go out and have adventures, and we want somewhere exciting, a place where there’s something to do, and we’re going to go with each other
  5. 6. We talk about having a cat farm when we’re 90 and I want to have lots of adventures and not have to slow down. Because I want the best stories I tell people about when I’m old to include you
  6. 9. The chorus evokes an image of _______ being a way to escape and get closer
  7. 10. Sometimes things will be hard, but I want to be fighting for it on the same side as you, and I want to work through whatever comes our way because it’s worth it to be with you
  8. 13. We both worry about our relationship, that it's everything it can be and is keeping the other happy. And I'm happy to be next to you, where it's warm and wonderful.
  9. 14. Us dating was taking a chance, jumping in head first, and we’ve had so many adventures and you've taken me so many places and we've had so many great experiences and it’s been wonderful
  10. 15. Goddamn cutsey saccharine song -- you might not be my first but you still opened my eyes
  11. 16. "What would I do if I didn’t have you, in this delicate game we play?” - life would be so much harder without you, and I would be less happy without you in my life
  12. 17. I hope it’s how you feel about me, and it’s how I feel about you
  13. 18. Specifically the chorus (without one line because I hate the phrase) and that we’ve both got baggage, but we help and support each other through it
  14. 19. I want to be someone who is good for you and supports you and urges you forward and is a solid and stable part of your life, that you doesn’t need to question me or my love or that I’ll be there for you
  15. 20. We went and looked at the stars then came back to my apartment and you stayed instead of going home...the big dreams and crazy plans we talk about, the kinds of plans we make for our lives (and you like the cold ;) )
  16. 22. You encourage me to be passionate and talk about the things I love, and I also love listening to you about the things you love
  17. 24. We don’t need the other, but we want the other around, not because we need each other to function, but because we enjoy the company and like to hang out together
  18. 27. I'll sweep you off your feet, I am here to stay, I’m yours to keep, and you won't have to say “don't leave me like this, Don't leave me like this”
  19. 28. If you get lost and don't know where to go
  20. 29. Taking on the world together and surviving in a hostile place with each other’s help
  21. 30. The role you played in me leaving the church and in that I had to really square with the doubts I’d been having to even start dating you because of what dating you revealed about the church
  22. 32. I want to be with you for a long time, I want to be still hanging out and loving you when we’re old, and I love you more and more all the time
  23. 34. How we've gotten this far and how we'll keep going
  24. 35. You let me drive your car and let me help and do things and be a partner. You remind me that I am a competent and capable adult who knows how to take care of things and don’t see me as inferior
