Always Known

Who would've thought this old bar could be so romantic

Your silhouette leads me up to the door, I felt it

And you said

"Driver, can you take us somewhere nicer?"

Somewhere far away from here

His face under traffic lights, it's magic

And he takes me to where the city lights fade oh so fast

Never thought I could be someone's somebody but since you asked

I've slipped into your rhythm

You take up all my mind

Forget my skepticism

I want you all the time

Now hold me with your body

Squeeze tight and don't let go

"I will love you forever

Yeah this I've always known"

Who would've thought this old bar could be so romantic

Built a palace on dance and drinks and bad habits

But now waitress, can you take me somewhere painless

Can you make it all go away?

Cyanide or a bottle of wine, I'll have it

And he takes me to where the city lights fade oh so fast

Never thought I could be someone's somebody but since you asked

I've slipped into your rhythm

You take up all my mind

Forget my skepticism

I want you all the time

Now hold me with your body

Squeeze tight and don't let go

"I will love you forever

Yeah this I've always known"

I guess our clock ran out in this shitty old town

I will think as I lie with another about your face, your embrace

Every moment retraced, even though I will know

That you can't be replaced

I know my mother will say I've got a reason to cry

That I had ghosts in my head and I had nowhere to hide

Couldn't ask, couldn't beg, for you to carry my bones

I had to do it alone, but you should know

At night I wait and listen

For something I can't find

Locked in my lonely prison

I miss you all time

Now hold me with your body

Squeeze tight and don't let go

I will love you forever

Yeah this I've always known
