You're in control

Pressing "pause" on my heartbeat

Someone stole all the air

So I can't speak now

I know the chase is on

I feel as though

My time has come

How many times do I fly

Through your headspace

Now we're speeding away

From a safe place

Yeah your skin

Your touch, your kiss

The rush, too much

And here it comes

When your lips touch mine

It's the kiss of life

I know

I know that it's a little bit frightening

We might as well be playing

With lightning

We touch the light

Like it's our first time

Oh oh

I know it is a little bit frightening

We might as well be playing

With lightning now

Oh oh

Oh oh

Just you and me and the

Coats in the back room

Learning things the don't

Teach in the classroom

Now, your here

I feel the fear

But everything

Is oh so clear

I've been addicted to you

Since the first hit

Out of control like a surge of electric

Yeah, your skin

Your touch, your kiss

The rush, too much

And here it comes

When your lips touch mine

It's the kiss of life

I know

I know that it's a little bit frightening

We might as well be playing

With lightning

We touch the light

Like it's our first time

Oh oh

I know it's a little bit frightening

We might as well be playing

With lightning now

Oh oh

Oh oh

Oh oh

Oh oh

Your skin, your touch

Your kiss, too much

Your skin, your touch

Your kiss, the rush

Your skin, your touch

Your kiss, too much

The rush, the rush

The rush, the rush

When your lips touch mine

It's the kiss of life

I know

I know that it's a little bit frightening

We might as well be playing

With lightning

We touch the light

Like it's our first time

Oh oh

I know it's a little bit frightening

We might as wel be playing

With lightning now

Oh oh

Oh oh
