Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I got a warning today

We gotta figure it out

'Cause when you make a mistake

You gotta figure it out

Left me with some kind of taste

I saw you once on the sidewalk

There on Mercer and Spring

We started out in the same place

[Verse 2]

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

(Take those elbows off the table)

[Verse 3]

I wanna mould in your shape

You gave me reason to ignite

I know the weather could change

Stuck in a permanent high tide

Hold back the lies 'cause I'm needing the truth

I wait for the sun like I'm ready to bloom

I'd be there for life if you wanted me to

[Verse 4]

If you've got something to say

I need you to say it

(Say it now)

[Verse 5]

I wanna stay awake tonight

I wanna go against the tide

I wanna stay with you tonight

I wanna stay with you tonight

I wanna stay awake tonight

I wanna go against the tide

I wanna stay with you tonight

I wanna stay with you tonight

[Verse 6]

Something in my heart is telling me the things I want, is what I've been waiting for

Something in my heart is telling me the truth

If you've got something to say, I need you to say it

[Verse 7]

(Say it now) Something in my heart is telling me the things I want, is what I've been waiting for

Something in my heart is telling me the truth

If you've got something to say, I need you to say it (Say it now)

[Verse 8]

I wanna stay awake tonight

I wanna go against the tide

I wanna stay with you tonight

I wanna stay with you tonight

[Verse 9]

I wanna stay awake tonight

I wanna go against the tide

I wanna stay with you tonight

I wanna stay with you tonight
