All my senses come to life

You could stay within these walls and bleed

Or just stay with me
A
Oh lord, now

[Bridge]

I’m stumbling off drunk, getting myself lost

I listen to sad songs, singing about love

And where it goes wrong

So you can keep me

inside the pocket of your ripped jeans

holding me closer till our eyes meet

hearing you whisper through the phone

wait for me to come home
