Verse 1:
Strike a conversation day one, the next few years spent loving underneath the sun,
I bring you around the world, you bring me down
You took my heart of steel my friend and molded it into something that worked again
But still you fell for all the burning ground
Pre Chorus:
So tell me yes or tell me no,
Tell me stop or tell me go,
I will be here waiting for you in the cold,
And just because I said Iâd do anything doesnât mean I want to go
Chorus:
But if I were cigarette smoke youâd love me,
If I were looking at your pictures youâd want me,
But I am just your ignorance and you are just a ghost,
So now we have to go, goodbye, letâs just raise one more toast
Verse 2:
Iâll be a thought in your head, the lines to a song or the book that you read
I would burn the city down to show you light
You made your way around the room, surprise, surprise, I left too soon
I was loving you with all my heart and might
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Verse 3:
So that night I went back to our home, the one Iâd let you stay at, now I live alone
I tried numbers, all I knew, my God above.
Every formula, equation, ever devised, I tried codes, machines, and realised
That science wouldnât show me how to love
Pre-chorus
Chorus
