When you think of all the late nights, lame fights, over the phone Wake up in the morning with someone, feeling alone A heart is drawn around your name in someone’s handwriting, not mine We’re sneaking out into town, holding hands, just killing time
Your past and mine Are parallel lines The stars all aligned They intertwined And taught you The way you call me baby Treat me like a lady All that I can say is
[Chorus] All of the girls you’ve loved before Made you the one I’ve fallen for Every dead-end street Led you straight to me Now you’re all I need I’m so thankful for all of the girls you’ve loved before But I love you more
When I think of all the makeup, fake love out on the town (ooh) Crying in the bathroom for some dude whose name I cannot remember now Secret jokes, all alone, no one’s home, sixteen and wild Breaking up, making up, leave without saying goodbye
Just know that It’s everything that made me Now I call you baby That’s why you’re so amazing
[Chorus]
Your mother brought you up loyal and kind Teenage love taught you there’s good in goodbye Every woman that you knew brought you here I wanna teach you how forever feels
Want is the cigarette smoke on a jacket you wore to the wrong part of town Desire is the sound of the whiskey telling me you miss me, can you come around
Passion is a passing thing it’s Accidental chemistry Lust is a liar, a short-lived fire It ain’t what you and I are at all
[Chorus] Oh, It’s a need, it’s a need I would go anywhere that you lead I am hopeless, breathless, burning slow Touch me, hold me, tell me, “I won’t let you go” I won’t leave, it’s a need
Danger is a thousand prickles on my neck that tell me to run or to freeze Fear is the nightmare I had you were with someone else, you forgot about me
Passion is a passing thing it’s Accidental chemistry Caught up in a feeling, it can be deceiving This is like breathing for me [breathes]
[Chorus]
Baby it’s always a new kiss every time we do this, the truth is It’s essential to me that you love me more than wishing, longing
