Save for the nature of midnight
My eyes are wide
The constant ascent of an intrigue that multiplies
Should the chance to cut and run arise
I’m sticking with you every time
Baby, I care
The same way you care
The beginning of the end of me
The only thing that ever meant a damn to me
The song I sing, the secret that I keep,
In the space between my teeth, you’re the only thing I need
Muted drums escape to the balcony through reflective glass
The two of us appeared as a picture,
Unaware the guests were staring back
But one by one descending from ten
We took the year and traded it in
Then in lifekind (?), we started again
The beginning of the end of me
The only thing that ever meant a damn to me
The song I sing, the secret that I keep,
In the space between my teeth, you’re the only thing I need
The only thing I need
Normally my heart is the source of my confusion,
But it’s a sucker for a backless dress
What a beautiful mess we’ve gotten into
What a beautiful mess
The beginning of the end of me
The only thing that ever meant a damn to me
The song I sing, the secret that I keep,
In the space between my teeth, you’re the only thing I need
You are the sunset, you are the morning,
You’re the time I kill between them
You’re the debt of a daydream when I wake so I can find you
You are the part of the chorus where you close your eyes and breathe
I was overwhelmed when you whispered,
And I was overcome when you smiled
I was overwhelmed
The beginning of the end of me
The only thing that ever meant a damn to me
(I was overcome when you smiled)
The song I sing, the secret that I keep,
In the space between my teeth, you’re the only thing I need
(I was overcome when you smiled)
The only thing I need
