I can't breathe, I can't blink
My mind's racing too fast to think
The silhouette, of that falling dress
Got my heart beating out of my chest
Can't take my hands off of your skin
Girl I'm gonna trace every inch
Let the moonlight shine down
Do what it does till the Sun comes up
And pull you in close
Get the two of us throwing one shadow
Ain't lettin' go
No we ain't even thinking 'bout tomorrow
I'm gonna follow my fingertips
From your hips up to your lips
Get lost in your kiss
Chasing the night till the daylight pulls us apart
Holding on to the dark
To hell with the tick tock up on the mantle
Take your time, give me all I can handle
Don't hold back, love can't wait
Baby daybreak is miles away
Let me pull you in close
Get the two of us throwing one shadow
Ain't lettin' go
No we ain't even thinking 'bout tomorrow
I'm gonna follow my fingertips
From your hips up to your lips
Get lost in your kiss
Chasing the night till the daylight pulls us apart
Holding on to the dark
Holding on to the dark
Can't take my hands off of your skin
Girl I'm gonna trace every inch
Let the moonlight shine down do what it does
And pull you in close
Get the two of us throwing one shadow
Ain't lettin' go
No we ain't even thinking 'bout tomorrow
I'm gonna follow my fingertips
From your hips up to your lips
Get lost in your kiss
Chasing the night till the daylight pulls us apart
Holding on to the dark
Holding on to the dark
