Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Sun is filling up the room

And I can hear you dreaming

Do you feel the way I do right now?

[Verse 2]

I wish we would just give up

'Cause the best part is falling

Callin' anything but love

[Verse 3]

And I will make sure

To keep my distance

Say I love you

When you're not listening

And how long

Can we keep this up, up, up?

[Verse 4]

Please don't stand so close to me

I'm having trouble breathing

I'm afraid of what you'll see

Right now

I'll give you everything I am

All my broken heartbeats

Until I know you'll understand

[Verse 5]

And I will make sure

To keep my distance

Say I love you

When you're not listening

And how long

Can we keep this up, up, up?

[Verse 6]

And I keep waiting

For you to take me

You keep waiting

To save what we have

[Verse 7]

So I'll make sure

To keep my distance

Say I love you

When you're not listening

And how long

Can we keep this up, up, up

[Verse 8]

Make sure

To keep my distance

Say I love you

When you're not listening

How long

Till we call this love, love, love?
