I'm walking fast through the traffic lights
Busy streets and busy lives
And all we know is touch and go
We are alone with our changing minds
We fall in love till it hurts or bleeds, or fades in time
And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same
You come around and the armor falls
Pierce the room like a cannon ball
Now all we know, is don’t let go
We are alone just you and me
Up in your room and our slates are clean
Just twin fire signs, four blue eyes
So you were never a saint
And I love the Sade’s are wrong
We learn to live with the pain
Mostly of broken hearts
But this love is raging and wild
And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same
This is a state of grace
This is a worth while fight
Love is a ruthless game
Unless you play it good and right
These are the hands of fate
You’re my Achilles heel
This is the golden age of something good
And right and real
And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same
And I never saw you coming
And I’ll never be the same
This is a state of grace
This is a worth while fight
Love is a ruthless game
Unless you play it good and right
Red Lyrics
Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end
street
Faster than the wind, passionate as sin, ending so suddenly
Loving him is like trying to change your mind once you're
already flying
through the free fall
Like the colors in autumn so bright just before they lose it
all
Losing him was blue, like I’d never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you've never
met
But loving him was red
Loving him was red
Touching him was like realizing all you ever wanted was
right there in
front of you
Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your
old
favorite song
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and
realizing
there's no right answer
Regretting him was like
wishing you never found out that love could be that strong
Losing him was blue, like I’d never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never
met
But loving him was red, oh red, burning red
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
Tell myself it's time now gotta let go
But moving on from him is impossible when I still see it all
in my head
in burning red
Burning, it was red
Losing him was blue, like I’d never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you've never
met
Cause loving him was red, yeah yeah red, burning red
And that’s why he’s spinning around in my head
Comes back to me in burning red
Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end
street
TREACHEROUS LYRICS
Put your lips close to mine
As long as they don't touch
Out of focus, eye to eye
Till the gravity's too much
And I'll do anything you say
If you say it with your hands
And I'd be smart to walk away, but you're quicksand
This slope is treacherous
This path is reckless
This slope is treacherous
And I, I, I like it
I can't decide if it's a choice
Getting swept away
I hear the sound of my own voice
Asking you to stay
And all we are is skin and bone trained to get along
Forever going with the flow, but you're friction
This slope is treacherous
This path is reckless
This slope is treacherous
And I, I, I like it
Two headlights shine through the sleepless night
And I will get you, get you alone
Your name has echoed through my mind
And I just think you should, think you should know
That nothing safe is worth the drive I will
Follow you, follow you home...
I'll follow you, follow you home...
This hope is treacherous
This daydream is dangerous
This hope is treacherous
I, I, I... I, I, I... I, I, I...
Two headlights shine through the sleepless night
And I will get you, get you alone
Your name has echoed through my mind
And I just think you should, think you should know
That nothing safe is worth the drive I will
Follow you, follow you home...
I'll follow you, follow you home...
I'll follow you, follow you home...
I'll follow you, follow you home...
This slope is treacherous
I, I, I like it
I Knew You Were Trouble Lyrics
Once upon a time a few mistakes ago
I was in your sights you got me alone
You found me you found me, you found me
I guess you didn't care, and I guess I liked that
And when I fell hard you took a step back
Without me without me, without me
And he's long gone when he's next to me
And I realize the blame is on me
Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I've never been
Till you put me down oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I've never been
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh oh trouble trouble trouble
Oh oh trouble trouble trouble
No apologies, he'll never see you cry
Pretend he doesn't know, that he's the reason why
You're drowning, you're drowning, you're drowning
Heard you moved on, from whispers on the street
A new notch in your belt is all I'll ever be
And now I see, now I see, now I see
He was long gone when he met me
And I realize the joke is on me
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I've never been
Till you put me down oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I've never been
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh oh trouble trouble trouble
Oh oh trouble trouble trouble
And the saddest fear comes creeping in
That you never loved me, or her, or anyone
Or anything, yeah
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I've never been
Till you put me down oh
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I've never been
Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground
Oh oh trouble trouble trouble
Oh oh trouble trouble trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble trouble trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
All Too Well Lyrics
I walked through the door with you, the air was cold
But something about it felt like home somehow
And I left my scarf there at your sister's house
And you still got it in your drawer, even now
Oh, your sweet disposition and my wide-eyed gaze
We're singing in the car getting lost upstate
Autumn leaves falling down like pieces into place
And I can picture it after all these days
And I know it's long gone
And that magic's not here no more
And I might be okay
But I'm not fine at all
'Cause there we are again, on that little town street
You almost ran the red 'cause you were looking over me
Wind in my hair, I was there, I remember it all too well
Photo album on the counter, your cheeks were turning red
You used to be a little kid with glasses in a twin-size bed
Your mother's telling stories about you on the tee ball team
You tell me about your past, thinking your future was me
And I know it's long gone
And there's nothing else I could do
And I forget about you long enough
To forget why I needed to
'Cause there we are again, in the middle of the night
We're dancing around the kitchen in the refrigerator light
Down the stairs, I was there, I remember it all too well
And maybe we got lost in translation, maybe I asked for too much
But maybe this thing was a masterpiece 'til you tore it all up
Running scared, I was there, I remember it all too well
And you call me up again just to break me like a promise
So casually cruel in the name of being honest
I'm a crumpled up piece of paper lying here
'Cause I remember it all, all, all too well
Time won't fly, it's like I'm paralyzed by it
I'd like to be my old self again, but I'm still trying to find it
After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own
Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone
But you keep my old scarf from that very first week
'Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me
You can't get rid of it 'cause you remember it all too well, yeah
'Cause there we are again, when I loved you so
Back before you lost the one real thing you've ever known
It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well
Wind in my hair, you were there, you remember it all
Down the stairs, you were there, you remember it all
It was rare, I was there, I remember it all too well
22 lyrics
It feels like a perfect night to dress up like hipsters
And make fun of our exes, uh uh uh uh
It feels like a perfect night for breakfast at midnight
To fall in love with strangers uh uh uh uh
Yeaaaah
We're happy free confused and lone at the same time
It's miserable and magical oh yeah
Tonight's the night when we forget about the deadlines, it's time
uh uh
I don't know about you but im feeling 22
Everything will be alright if you keep me next to you
You don't know about me but I bet you want to
Everything will be alright if we just keep dancing like we're 22,
22
It seems like one of those nights
This place is too crowded too many cool kids
It seems like one of those nights
We ditch the whole scene and end up dreaming instead of sleeping
Yeaaaah
We're happy free confused and lone in the best way
It's miserable and magical oh yeah
Tonight's the night when we forget about the heartbreaks, it's
time uh uh
I don't know about you but im feeling 22
Everything will be alright if you keep me next to you
You don't know about me but I bet you want to
Everything will be alright if we just keep dancing like we're 22,
22
I don't know about you, 22, 22
It feels like one of those nights
We ditch the whole scene
It feels like one of those nights
We won't be sleeping
It feels like one of those nights
You look like bad news I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I don't know about you but im feeling 22
Everything will be alright if you keep me next to you
You don't know about me but I bet you want to
Everything will be alright if we just keep dancing like we're 22,
22
Dancing like 22, yeah, 22, yeah yeah
It feels like one of those nights
We ditch the whole scene
It feels like one of those nights
We won't be sleeping
It feels like one of those nights
You look like bad news I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I Almost Do Lyrics
I bet this time of night you're still up
I bet you're tired from a long hard week
I bet you're sitting in your chair by the window
Looking out at the city
And I bet sometimes you wonder about me
And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know every time I don't
I almost do
I almost do
I bet you think I either moved on or hate you
Cuz each time you reach out there's no reply
I bet it never ever occurred to you that I can't say hello to you
And risk another goodbye
And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that every time I don't
I almost do
I almost do
Oh we made quite a mess babe
It's probably better off this way
And I confess babe
In my dreams you're touching my face
And asking me if I want to try again with you
And I almost do
And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that every time I don't
I almost do
I almost do
I bet this time of night you're still up
I bet you're tired from a long hard week
I bet you're sitting in your chair by the window looking out at
the city
And I hope sometimes you wonder about me
WE ARE NEVER EVER EVER
GETTING BACK TOGETHER
I remember when we broke up
The first time
Saying this is it, I’ve had enough
Because like
We hadn’t seen each other in a month
when you said you needed space
what?
Then you come round again and say
Baby,
I miss you and I swear I’m gonna change
Trust me
Remember how that lasted for a day
I say
I hate you
We break up
You call me
I love you
Ooooh
We called it off again last night
But oooh
This time I’m telling you, I’m telling you
We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends
Talk to my friends
Talk to me
But we are never ever ever getting back together
Like… ever
I’m really gonna miss you picking fights
And me
Falling for it screaming that I’m right
And you
Would hide away and find your piece of mind
With some
Indie record that’s so much cooler than mine
Ooooh
You called me up again tonight
But this time
I’m telling you, I’m telling you
We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends
Talk to my friends
Talk to me (talk to me)
But we are never ever ever getting back together
Oooh (yeah)
Oooh (yeah)
Oooh (yeah)
Oh oh oh
I used to say
that we were forever, ever
And I used to to say
Never say never
(talking)
Uhh So he calls me up and hes like
‘I used to love you”
I’m just..I mean like this is exhausting you know
We are never getting back together
Like ever
We are never ever ever getting back together
We are never ever ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends
Talk to my friends
Talk to me (talk to me)
But we are never ever ever ever getting back together
We oooh
We oooh
You go talk to your friends
Talk to my friends
Talk to me but we are never ever ever ever getting back together
Stay Stay Stay Lyrics
I'm pretty sure we almost broke up last night
I threw my phone across the room at you
I was expecting some dramatic turn away
But you stayed
This morning I said we should talk about it
Cause I read you should never leave a fight unresolved
That's when you came in wearing a football helmet
And said okay let's talk
And I said
Stay, stay, stay
I've been loving you for quite some time, time, time
You think that it's funny when I'm mad, mad, mad
But I think that it's best if we both stay
Before you I only dated self indulgent takers
Who took all of their problems out on me
But you carry my groceries and now I'm always laughing
And I love you because you have given me no choice but
to
Stay, stay, stay
I've been loving you for quite some time, time, time
You think that it's funny when I'm mad, mad, mad
But I think that it's best if we both stay, stay, stay,
stay
You took the time to memorize me
My fears, my hopes and dreams
I just like hanging out with you all the time
All those times that you didn't leave
It's been occurring to me
I'd like to hang out with you for my whole life
Stay
I'll be loving you for quite some time
No one else is gonna love me when I get mad, mad, mad
So I think that it's best if we both stay, stay, stay
Stay, stay, stay
Stay, stay, stay
I've been loving you for quite some time, time, time
You think that it's funny when I'm mad, mad, mad
But I think that it's best if we both stay, stay, stay,
stay
Stay, stay, stay
I've been loving you for quite some time, time, time
You think that it's funny when I'm mad, mad, mad
But I think that it's best if we both stay
Stay Stay Stay Lyrics
I'm pretty sure we almost broke up last night
I threw my phone across the room at you
I was expecting some dramatic turn away

This morning I said we should talk about it
Cause I read you should never leave a fight unresolved
That's when you came in wearing a football helmet

And I said

The Last Time Lyrics ft. Gary Lightbody
Gary Lightbody:
Found myself at your door,
Just like all those times before,
I’m not sure how I got there,
All roads they lead me here.
I imagine you are home,
In your room, all alone,
And you open your eyes into mine,
And everything feels better,
Both:
I'm right before your eyes,
I’m breaking, no thoughts,
No reasons why,
Just you and me.
This is the last time I’m asking you this,
Put my name at the top of your list,
This is the last time I’m asking you why,
You break my heart in the blink of an eye.
Taylor Swift:
You find yourself at my door,
Just like all those times before,
You wear your best apology,
But I was there to watch you leave,
And all the times I let you in,
Just for you to go again,
Disappear when you come back,
Everything is better.
Both:
I'm right before your eyes,
I’m aching, run fast,
Nowhere to hide,
Just you and me…
This is the last time I’m asking you this,
Put my name at the top of your list,
This is the last time I’m asking you why,
You break my heart in the blink of an eye, eye, eye…
This is the last time you tell me I’ve got it wrong,
This is the last time I say it’s been you all along,
This is the last time I let you in my door,
This is the last time, I won’t hurt you anymore.
Oh, oh, oh,oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the last time I’m asking you this,
Put my name at the top of your list,
This is the last time I’m asking you why,
You break my heart in the blink of an eye.
This is the last time I’m asking you this, (this is the last
time I’m asking you this)
Put my name on the top of your list, (name on the top of
your list)
This is the last time I’m asking you why, (this is the last
time I’m asking you why)
You break my heart in the blink of an eye. (You break my
heart…)
This is the last time I’m asking you,
Last time I’m asking you,
Last time I’m asking you this (x3)
Holy Ground lyrics
I was reminiscing just the other day
While having coffee all alone
And Lord, it took me away
Back to a first glance feeling on New York time
Back when you fit my poems like a perfect rhyme
Took off faster than a green light, go
Yeah, you skip the conversation when you already know
I left a note on the door with a joke we'd made
And that was the first day
And darling, it was good
Never looking down
And right there where we stood
Was holy ground
Spinning like a girl in a brand new dress
We had this big wide city all to ourselves
We block the noise with the sound of “I need you”
And for the first time I had something to lose
And I guess we fell apart in the usual way
And the story's got dust on every page
But sometimes I wonder how you think about it now
And I see your face in every crowd
'Cause darling, it was good
Never looking down
And right there where we stood
Was holy ground
Tonight I’m gonna dance
For all that we've been through
But I don't want to dance
If I’m not dancing with you
Tonight I’m gonna dance
Like you were in this room
But I don't want to dance
If I’m not dancing with you
Darling, it was good
Never looking down
And right there where we stood
Was holy ground
Tonight I’m gonna dance
For all that we've been through
But I don't want to dance
If I’m not dancing with you
Tonight I’m gonna dance
Like you were in this room
But I don't want to dance
If I’m not dancing with you
Sad Beautiful Tragic Lyrics
Long handwritten note, deep in your pocket
Words, how little they mean when you're a little too late
I stood right by the tracks, your face in a locket
Good girls, hopeful they'll be and lonely will wait
We had a beautiful magic love affair
What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
In dreams, I meet you in long conversation
We both wake in lonely beds, and different cities
And time is ticking a sweet summer erasing you
And you've got your demons and darling they all look like me
Cause we had a beautiful magic love affair
What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
Distance, timing, break down, fighting
Silence, this train runs off its tracks
Kiss me, try to fix it, could you just try to listen
Hang up, give up, for the life of us we can't get back
A beautiful magic love affair
What a sad beautiful tragic, beautiful tragic, beautiful
What we had, a beautiful magic love affair
What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
We had a beautiful magic love affair
What a sad beautiful tragic love affair
The Lucky One lyrics
New to town with a made up name in the angel city,
Chasing fortune and fame.
And the camera flashes, make it look like a dream.
You had it figured out since you were in school.
Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool.
So overnight you look like a sixties’ queen.
Another name goes up in lights, like diamonds in the sky.
And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
Yeah, they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
But can you tell me now, you’re the lucky one.
Now it’s big black cars, and Riviera views,
And your lover in the foyer doesn’t even know you
And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page.
And they tell you that you’re lucky.
But you’re so confused,
Cause you don’t feel pretty, you just feel used.
And all the young things line up to take your place.
Another name goes up in lights. You wonder if you’ll make it out
alive.
And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
Yeah, they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
Can you tell me now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
It was a few years later, I showed up here.
And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared,
How you took the money and your dignity, and got the hell out.
They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere,
Chose the Rose Garden over Madison Square,
And it took some time, but I understand it now.
‘Cause now my name is up in lights, but I think you got it right,
Let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
Let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
Let me tell you now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
Yeah, they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one.
And they’ll tell you now, you’re the lucky one, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, whoa, oh, oh.
Everything Has Changed Lyrics ft. Ed Sheeran
[Taylor Swift]
All I knew is the morning when I woke
Is I know something now, something now I didn't before
And all I've seen since eighteen hours ago
Is green eyes and freckles in your smile
In the back of my mind making me feel right
I just wanna know you better know you better know you better now
I just wanna know you better know you better know you better now
I just wanna know you better know you better know you better now
I just wanna know you know you know you
'Cause all I know is we said "Hello"
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know it's simple ain't it? Everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
[Ed Sheeran]
And all my walls stand tall painted blue
And I'll take them down, take them down and open up the door for
you
[Taylor Swift]
And all I feel in my stomach is butterflies
The beautiful kind, making up for lost time,
Taking flight, making me feel right
I just wanna know you better know you better know you better now
I just wanna know you better know you better know you better now
I just wanna know you better know you better know you better now
I just wanna know you know you know you
'Cause all I know is we said "Hello"
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know it's simple ain't it? Everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
Come back and tell me why
I'm feeling like I've missed you all this time, oh, oh, oh
And meet me there tonight
And let me know that it's not all in my mind
[Taylor Swift]
I just wanna know you better know you better know you better now
I just wanna know you know you know you
[Both]
'Cause all I know is we said "Hello"
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know it's simple ain't it? Everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
All I know is we said "Hello"
So dust off the highest hopes
All I know is pouring rain and everything has changed
All I know is the new found grace
All my days I know your face
All I know since yesterday is everything has changed
Starlight Lyrics
I said oh my, what marvelous tune
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
The whole place was dressed to the nines,
And we were dancing dancing
Like we're made of starlight
Like we're made of starlight
I met Bobby on the boardwalk, summer of '45
Picked me up late one night at the window,
He was 17 and crazy, running wild, wild
Can't remember what song he was playing when we walked in
The night we snuck into a yacht club party
Pretending to be a duchess and a prince
I said oh my, what marvelous tune
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
The whole place was dressed to the nines,
And we were dancing dancing
Like we're made of starlight
Like we're made of starlight
He said "look at you, worrying so much about things you can't
change
You'll spend your whole life singing the blues if you keep
thinking away "
He was trying to skip rocks on the ocean, saying to me
"Don't you see the starlight starlight?
Don't you dream impossible things?"
Like oh my, what marvelous tune
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
The whole place was dressed to the nines,
And we were dancing dancing
Like we're made of starlight
Like we're made of starlight
Ooh ooh he's talking in crazy
Ooh ooh dancing with me
Ooh ooh we could get married
Have ten kids and teach them how to dream
I said oh my, what marvelous tune
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
The whole place was dressed to the nines,
And we were dancing dancing
Like we're made of starlight
Like we're made of starlight
Like we dream impossible dreams
Don't you see the starlight?
Don't you dream impossible things?
Begin Again Lyrics
Took a deep breath in the mirror
He didn't like it when I wore high heels, but I do
Turned the lock and put my headphones on
He always said he didn't get this song but I do, I do
Walked in expecting you'd be late
But you got here early
And you stand and wait
And I walk to you
You pulled my chair out and helped me
And you don't know how nice that is
But I do
And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did
I've been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again
You said you never met one girl
Who has as many James Taylor records as you
But I do
We tell stories and you don't know why I'm coming off a little shy
But I do
But you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did
I've been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
But on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again
And we walk down the block to my car
And I almost brought him up
But you start to talk about the movies
That your family watches every single Christmas
And I won't talk about that
For the first time, what's passed is past
'Cause you throw your head back laughing like a little kid
I think it's strange that you think I'm funny 'cause he never did
I've been spending the last 8 months thinking all love ever does
Is break and burn and end
Then on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again
Then on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again
The Moment I Knew Lyrics
You should've been there,
Should've burst through the door,
With that 'baby I'm right here' smile,
And it would've felt like,
A million little shining stars had just aligned,
And I would've been so happy.
Christmas lights glisten,
I've got my eye on the door,
Just waiting for you to walk in,
But the time is ticking,
People ask me how I've been
As I come back through my memory,
How you said you'd be here,
You said you'd be here.
And it was like slow motion,
Standing there in my party dress,
In red lipstick,
With no-one to impress,
And they're all laughing,
As I'm looking around the room,
But there's one thing missing,
And that was the moment I knew.
And the hours pass by,
Now I just wanna be alone,
But your close friends always seem to know
when there's something really wrong,
So they follow me down the hall,
And there in the bathroom,
I try not to fall apart,
And the sinking feeling starts,
As I say hopelessly,
"He said he'd be here."
And it was like slow motion,
Standing there in my party dress,
In red lipstick,
With no-one to impress,
And they're all laughing,
And asking me about you,
But there's one thing missing,
And that was the moment I knew.
What do you say
When tears are streaming down your face,
In front of everyone you know?
And what do you do when the one
Who means the most to you,
is the one who didn't show?
You should've been here.
And I would've been so happy.
And it was like slow motion,
Standing there in my party dress,
In red lipstick,
With no-one to impress,
And they're all standing around me singing,
Happy Birthday to you,
But there's one thing missing,
And that was the moment I knew.
Ooh, I knew.
You call me later,
And say I'm sorry I didn't make it.
And I say I'm sorry too,
And that was the moment I knew.
Come Back... Be Here
Lyrics
You said it in a simple way,
4 AM, the second day,
How strange that I don't know you at all.
Stumbled through the long goodbye,
One last kiss, then catch your flight,
Right when I was just about to fall
I told myself don't get attached,
But in my mind I play it back,
Spinning faster than the plane that took you...
And this is when the feeling sinks in,
I don't wanna miss you like this,
Come back... be here, come back... be here.
I guess you're in New York today,
I don't wanna need you this way,
Come back... be here, come back... be here.
The delicate beginning rush,
The feeling you can know so much,
Without knowing anything at all.
And now that I can put this down,
If I had known what I'd known now,
I never would have played so nonchalance.
Taxi cabs and busy streets,
That never bring you back to me,
I can't help but wish you took me with you...
And this is when the feeling sinks in,
I don't wanna miss you like this,
Come back... be here, come back... be here.
I guess you're in London today,
I don't wanna need you this way,
Come back... be here, come back... be here.
This is falling in love in the cruelest way,
This is falling for you and you are worlds away.
New York... be here.
But you're in London and I break down,
'Cause it's not fair that you're not around.
This is when the feeling sinks in,
I don't wanna miss you like this,
Come back... be here, come back... be here.
I guess you're in New York today,
And I don't wanna need you this way,
Come back... be here, come back... be here.
I don't wanna miss you like this.
Come back... be here.
Come back... be here.
Girl At Home Lyrics
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that,
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that.
I don't even know her,
But I feel a responsibility,
To do what's upstanding and right,
It's kinda like a code, yeah,
And you've been getting closer and closer,
And crossing so many lines.
And it would be a fine proposition,
If I was a stupid girl,
But honey I am no-one's exception,
This I have previously learned.
So don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that,
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that,
I see you turn off your phone,
And now you got me alone,
And I say,
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that.
I just wanna make sure,
You understand perfectly,
You're the kind of man who makes me sad,
While she waits up,
You chase down the newest thing,
And take for granted what you have.
And it would be a fine preposition,
If I was a stupid girl,
And yeah I might go with it,
If I hadn't once been just like her.
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that,
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that,
I see you turn off your phone,
And now you've got me alone,
And I say,
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that.
Call a cab,
Lose my number,
You're about to lose your girl,
Call a cab,
Lose my number,
Let's consider this lesson learned.
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that,
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that,
Wanna see you pick up your phone,
And tell her you're coming home,
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that,
Don't look at me,
You've got a girl at home,
And everybody knows that,
Everybody knows that.
It would be a fine proposition,
If I hadn't once been just like her.
