my lyricsbox
I stand overlooking this town
Two miles I thought I'd never find
Overlooking lights, from cars that pass
You know I can't forget that night

We started running away
You fell asleep in the rain
You look too cute when you sleep
It's too big to escape
I'm not coming back home
If I had to

And girl, you're the one,
You know I really want to fall asleep to
I can't fall asleep to just anyone

And I've readied the letters to sign for the better
This summer I spent was the last perfect thing about this year
In time, I want you by my side through the night
I like my chances when it's us against the world

When these rooftops were made for dreamers
I've never felt so alive
Overlooking lights
I hope like hell that you stay with me tonight

It's everything worth dying for
It's not hard to see the heart in this
I'm the one who's faded, waiting
Hoping you'll stay (hoping you'll stay)

And girl, you're the one,
You know I really want to fall asleep to
I can't fall asleep to just anyone

And I've readied the letters to sign for the better
This summer I spent was the last perfect thing about this year
In time, I want you by my side through the night
I like my chances when it's us against the world

She saves me from everything (yeah)
She makes me feel alive
My frequency on high (high)
A clean break, a new start
A new star, to fall from
And I'll make it better (make it better)
I'm counting down the ways to say I will

And I've readied the letters to sign for the better
This summer I spent was the last perfect thing about this year
In time, I want you by my side for the night
I like my chances when it's us against the world

We'll keep the radio off
For when you're going to sleep
When you're beside me, I hear your heart beat
I'm not coming back home
If I had to, you know
This song is from the album "Something You Know Nothing About [EP]".
