I adore you
Everyone else can start to leave
Fall apart like they're on the breeze
I adore you
Set on fire
Let it burn there in front of us
Flare just like chemicals
Set on fire
Has the weight of my love
Has the weight of my love
Been killing you?
I know you felt it
But never would have said it
'Til you're screaming how it isn't true
Who's there for you?
Laying in the dark
Laying in the dark
As the headlights start to fade
And we kiss like runaways
What's left for you?
Keep an open mind
Keep an open mind
As the headlights start to fade
And I'm gone before you wake
Do it for me
Hold my sin like it's criminal
Lock it down like a prisoner
Do it for me
Save my number
I could be right
Lately I've been wrong
I could be weak
Maybe never strong
Save my number
Has the weight of your love
Has the weight of your love
Been killing me?
I know I felt it
But never would have said it
'Til I'm screaming how I still believe
Who's there for you?
Laying in the dark
Laying in the dark
As the headlights start to fade
And we kiss like runaways
What's left for you?
Keep an open mind
Keep an open mind
As the headlights start to fade
And I'm gone before you wake
As the headlights start to fade
Have faded
Would you want to be alone with me?
(Headlights)
Have faded
Would you wonder if my heart's still beating? (Headlights)
I've got a feeling that it's on your mind
Who's there for you?
Laying in the dark
Laying in the dark
As the headlights start to fade
And we kiss like runaways
What's left for you?
Keep an open mind
Keep an open mind
As the headlights start to fade
And I'm gone before you wake
