|
My words fell short in the middle of the spotlight |
|
My arms unfold and nobody's gonna get my eyes off you |
|
Promise me you'll lead me away from the past and the broken |
|
I can't explain all the things that I was thinking |
|
My eye's on you- promise me you'll lead me away |
|
I've been waiting for you |
|
And if I slow my breathing |
|
I'll build a spine and make a move |
|
I've been drifting away |
|
Away from these average thoughts |
|
And into every word you say |
|
I've been drifting away |
|
Oh I've been slipping away |
|
I've been drifting away |
|
And I've been slipping |
|
into every word you say |
|
The love I sought would have never been in this light |
|
A parking lot, down south, close to midnight |
|
Come back soon I promise you I'll lead you away |
|
From the past and the broken |
|
I've been burned so I know what you were thinking |
|
Come back soon I promise you I'll let you away |
|
I've been waiting for you |
|
And if I slow my breathing |
|
I'll build a spine and make a move |
|
I've been drifting away |
|
Away from these average thoughts |
|
And into every word you say |
|
I've been drifting away |
|
Oh I've been slipping away |
|
I've been drifting away |
|
And I've been slipping |
|
into every word you say |
|
I broke one |
|
Why another one? |
|
Too many times I've played the fool |
|
But God knows my breaks brought me back to you |
|
I broke one |
|
Why another one? |
|
I can't believe I'm seeing two |
|
But God knows my breaks bear to save you |
|
I've been waiting for you |
|
And if I slow my breathing |
|
I'll build a spine and make a move |
|
I've been drifting away |
|
Away from these average thoughts |
|
And into every word you say |
|
I've been drifting away |
|
Oh I've been slipping away |
|
I've been drifting away |
|
And I've been slipping |
|
into every word you say. |
