lyrics

room's dark, LED lit face
beating heart trying to keep up the pace
with the conversation
the words we exchange are made in
cleverly flirtacious ways

oh me, oh my
these are the times
time to open your eyes, hold on for the ride
but don't let your mind go inside too far
we have gone too far

and i was told that love's a losing game
but i've seen the winners share their names
faithful to ambition, i break the tradition -
my starting line stands at attention.
i said, "ready, aim, but hold your fire"
a civil love won't be acquired by a fight
make light til you sight their waving flag of white

because i have made mistakes before
i have felt my faults, fallen face first on the floor
and when it rains, it rains, it pours
this is just an arms race
this isn't war

look at the signs to see that
love is patient, yes love is kind
love got in my mind
went too far this time
and only got me higher

now i'm right where you want me to be
you've had your fun with strategy
get your ammunition
let me warm up my choir

singing, "hold me close,
while the walls are down.
i'll fall without you. i'll fall without you.
hold me close,
safe and sound,
i'll fall without you. i'll fall without you."

"It's an obligation. It's bigger than you. It's the only true magic I know. It's not pulling a rabbit out of a hat; it's real. It's your soul floating out to theirs." <3
