Lyrics

Your arms around me come undone
Makes my heart beat like a drum
See the panic in my eyes
Kiss me only when I cry
'Cause you always want what you're running from
And you know this is more than you can take
Baby, don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us
Baby, please don't look away
When the morning breaks us
Oh, your touch, so bittersweet, ah
Baby, don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us
Your cheek is softly by the sun
Makes my heart beat like a drum
I know it hurts you, I know it burns you
Hot and cold in a lonely hotel room
Look into me, tell me why you're crying
I need to know
'Cause you always want what you're running from
And it's always been that way, oh
Baby, don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us
Baby, please don't look away
When the morning breaks us
Oh, your touch, so bittersweet, ah
Baby, don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us
'Cause you always want what you're running from
Baby, don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us
Baby, please don't look away
When the morning breaks us
Oh, your touch, so bittersweet, ah
Baby, don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us (morning breaks us)
