Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Stoned, hanging with your headphones on
Propped against the kitchen wall, all the kids, they play it cool
So I start to make my move
Cops, they're breaking down your door
Thrust into the city night, I'll grab a hold of your skin
[Verse 2]
Now we're dancing in the siren love
No one's gonna give you love like I give you love
And no one else is gonna fight, not like I fight desire
[Verse 3]
Arms hidden in my winter coat, never been this cold before
Baby, you were feeling close, or maybe just keepin' warm
Knots, they form around your tongue, feel you start to push away
Always feel like I'm too late even when the night is still young
[Verse 4]
'Cause no one's gonna give you love like I give you love
And no one else is gonna fight, not like I'd fight desire
[Verse 5]
Everybody say, "Just keep away"
Those jealous wives with hands like knives
I've seen kingdoms burn for lesser things
Than loose lips and wandering eyes
[Verse 6]
And no one's gonna give you love like I give you love
And no one else is gonna fight, not like I'd fight desire
[Verse 7]
Quiet, tip toe outta your front door
Drivin' down a dead-end road
Never saw the warning signs
And now we got no place we can go
[Verse 8]
Worried that we'd be too loud
You cup your hand over my mouth
Maybe we should fool around
If we're gonna play the fool anyhow
[Verse 9]
And no one's gonna give you love like I give you love
And no one else is gonna fight, not like I'd fight
And no one's gonna give you love like I give you love
No one else is gonna fight, not like I'd fight desire
