You're acting so shy in the front seat with the
Streetlights dancing across your cheeks.
Catch my eye, and I promise I won’t turn away.
The lights they change, but we don’t face the road
Until you hit me with those kiss me lips

I don’t want to take you home
I don’t want to end this night.
I want to watch the moon grow old and
I want to watch the star shine die.
We’ll run circles ‘round this town ‘til my gas runs out.
You’ll smile and pretend you didn’t know
I took the long way home.

Real life satellites are as far as us tonight.
You and I are running blind now.
Pass me a cool cup of some stranger’s air.
I guess I can say more when
We wake up and you’re a thousand miles away.

I just want a girl that I can take and shake the world with,
Our time is all we got, I’ll be John, you be my Jane Smith
And we can make this room spin upside down.
I know we’ve been running low but I think we can work it out.

I just want a girl to kiss in Grand Central,
Have people turn cameras from the
Ceiling to our lips

Lie to me
Lie and tell me it’s all right
Lie every time that you
Lie with me beneath debris that we make
Day after day.
Are we ok

I’ve been patient and waiting, but
That’s a past love now
Baby, just let us be. Let this distance between us
Grow worlds and worlds apart.
If not for these tangled sheets tying me you’d be
Stuck in that dream and never feel me leave.

Baby, you’re a melody that I just have to buy for me.
That’s how you keep me broke like the sight on Cupid’s crossbow
When he shot me in the eye, oh.
Now all I see are the illusions, a Russian roulette I get to choose from.
But tonight, girl I’m a blind man, let’***** the masquerade and
I’ll see if I can find you.

Can’t you see it wears us out, stumbling?
Tails tucked tight our tongues are fumbling.
You’re wondering who I’m walking to talking to,
I’m thinking whose stalking, sweet-talking you.

I know that something’s going to **** me tonight.
It could be my answers needing questions, jeopardy.
It’s all a delicate eggshell and you think it’s just a dream
Until a girl in Stella with some Secrets, undresses me.

I remember. I remember how we used to
Just take our time with it
I’d turn you out like it’s our very first time with it
        But, now I’m falling for memories and

        Time is slipping away

— The End —
