Love you in the worst way
You knock me down like a heavyweight
We fell in love got a K.O. oh no
Too damn young so we broke up no go
So much for a wedding date
I know nobody gets out of love alive
We either breakup when we’re young
Or we say goodbye when we die
For a moment at least I know you were mine and it was beautiful
But winter comes and roses don’t survive
Its getting late, and I should go
But I wanna hold you, like it’s June in the west end
Back when you were my best friend
Before love came to kill us
We’re not supposed to, but I can’t learn my lesson
I miss when you were my best friend
Before love came to kill us
So under the mask of the Moon, could we dance in the past
Before love, before love came to kill us
Life’s good and I’m getting paid
But I think about you everyday (still)
When I miss you I medicate (pour up drink, drink)
Tears come out like a renegade
Cause nobody gets out of love alive
We either breakup when we’re young
Or we say goodbye when we die
For a moment at least I know you were mine and it was beautiful
But winter comes and roses don’t survive
Its getting late and I should go
But I wanna hold you, like it’s June in the west end
Back when you were my best friend
Before love came to kill us
We’re not supposed to, but I can’t learn my lesson
I miss when you were my best friend
Before love came to kill us
So under the mask of the Moon, could we dance in the past
Before love, before love came to kill us
Under under the mask of the Moon, could we dance in the past
Before love, before love, before love came to kill us
