Boy you're killing me With your funny smile My heart is beating loud as hell I'm diving in your eyes My whole life is upside and down When you're chasing down my skin The more I run away from you The closer you draw near Take me to the edge of feeling Heart against my skin Show me places I have longed for In sanctity and sin Locked intense inside my head Your touch will set me free I hold on til the sun comes up If you'll be there for me I wonder if you let me down [Repeat x4] Don't you turn your back on me Take a look at where you want to be Don't be scared of what you see The only thing that's killing you is me Now you're leaving me With your angry eyes My love gets lost with you I was saving you last night Locked intense inside my head Your trust will set us free The more you run away from me The closer I draw near I wonder [Repeat x4] Don't you
