I wanna walk that line a little crooked
And live my life a little on the rocks
Laughing every time I fail
Not afraid to make a fool of myself
And keep on dancing when the music stops

'Cause I love being in love
It's the best kind of drug
Drunk on the holy lean on your shoulders
Sweet like a wine as it gets older
When I die I don't wanna go sober
When I die I don't wanna go sober

You're like drinking from a never ending bottle
When I think it's gone it's always a little more left
Lay back with you and close my eyes
Let the big ol' world just spin on by
And saying your name with my last breath

'Cause I love being in love
It's the best kind of drug
Drunk on the holy lean on your shoulders
Sweet like a wine as it gets older
When I die I don't wanna go sober
When I die I don't wanna go sober

I love being in love
It's the best kind of drug
Drunk on the holy lean on your shoulders
Sweet like wine as it gets older
When I die I don't wanna go sober

I love being in love
It's the best kind of drug
Drunk on the holy lean on your shoulders
Sweet like a wine as it gets older
When I die I don't wanna go sober
When I die I don't wanna go sober
When I die I don't wanna go sober
