The party’s dope, your friends are broke
So they all smoke your cigarettes,
The candlelight is burning like
the Sun that’s rising in the west,
Your phone is dead, you hurt your leg
‘Cause you fell on your way to find me
You’re always late but you look great
Babe, when you finally get beside me
How can I get, so close to it,
So close to the love inside me?
I’ve tasted it, I hated it,
Until you were there to guide me
My heart is bleeding like I fell on the edge of a knife
I know you mean it when you tell me you’re willing to fight
The Summer’s over but, our love is never ending
Open your eyes, we’re light personified
We walk around this stupid town,
The lights go down, we’re silhouettes,
We know these streets, we walk the beat,
But secretly we kinda like it
My younger days, my foolish ways,
Well, I put all of them behind me,
You’re all I see, you’re part of me,
And I can’t find the words to write it
How can I get, so close to it,
So close to the love inside me?
I’ve tasted it, I hated it,
Until you were there to guide me
My heart is bleeding like I fell on the edge of a knife
I know you mean it when you tell me you’re willing to fight
The Summer’s over but, our love is never ending
Open your eyes, we’re light personified
Walk to the ends of the Earth,
Just to wind up beside you,
Love is a hell of a word,
But I need to describe you,
I know when the night is over,
And you’re on my mind,
I’ll run till my mind is sober,
Until you’ll be mine
My heart is bleeding like I fell on the edge of a knife
I know you mean it when you tell me you’re willing to fight
The Summer’s over but, our love is never ending
Open your eyes, we’re light personified
My heart is bleeding like I fell on the edge of a knife
I know you mean it when you tell me you’re willing to fight
The Summer’s over but, our love is never ending
Open your eyes, we’re light personified
