Where love goes, i know where love goes

Oh i know where love goes. know where love goes, yeah

If we colored our white walls pitch black

Turn all the lights off and lay back

We can make love with our bare hands

We can make light out of thin air

Or we can close our eyes and sleep well

Dreams feel realer than right now

But whatever you do don't let go

My only nightmare is waking up alone

Alone when your not mine

And the room painted off white

Running out in the daylight, tryna get back to you

When i stare into your eyes, i see my real life

That's why i never sleep with my back to you

When i lay it down, facing you

I can feel my eyelids glow (i never sleep with my back to you)

And if the sun rises, (back to you) behind you

I don't think i'd notice though

I never sleep with my back to you, back to you

I never sleep with my back to you, back to you, back to you

Laying under the covers that i stole

From your side of the bed cause i got cold

You rolled over and whispered ro-robbery

So you been sleeping with a thief in your bed

Stole your heart, and your pillows

Whatever you do just don't go

Baby, the worst jail is waking up

Alone in the world when your not mine

In a room painted off white

Running out in the daylight, tryna get back to you

When i'm looking in your eyes, i see my real life

So i never sleep with my back to you

When i lay it down, facing you

I can feel my eyelids close (i never sleep with my back to you)

And if the sun rises (back to you) behind you

I don't think i'd notice though (i never sleep with my back to you)

Like a nightlight, like a teddy bear

Like toddlers playing

Look at us baby, two grownups acting like children

Oh oh oh, yeah yeah

When i lay it down, facing you

I can feel my eyelids close (i never sleep with my back to you)

And if the sun rises, (back to you) behind you

I don't think i'd notice though (i never sleep with my back to you, back to you)

When i lay it down, facing you

I can feel my eyelids close (i never sleep with my back to you)

And if the sun rises, (back to you) behind you

I don't think i'd notice though (i never sleep with my back to you, back to you)
