Lyrics

Verse 1

She says go slow so slow
You know I can barely breathe
You know and I know that
We will love eventually
It's your soft pink lips
Wrapped on mine so tightly
Lay here with me tonight
You know I will keep you warm

Pre-Chorus

When she?s fallen down I?m around
Because I?m in love with the queen of love
She?s my love oh my love
She?s the one with the remedy
When she says

Chorus

Come on baby
She says maybe
You can come by and
Bring all the love you have inside
And lately I?ve been thinking about you
I?ve got to say damn
You look so good to me
I love it when you feel me
So close to your heart when it beats
It echoes in my brain
Four seasons three good reasons
And these two lovers
Make up one breathe now

Verse 2

Well it?s your smell on me that
Reminds me of you all the time
I don?t want to go to sleep because I?m
Thinking of you and you?re not here
You steal my thoughts and
Weave them through your phony crown
As they?re falling down your hair I
Gather them up all over again

Pre-Chorus / Chorus repeat

There was a time we felt in love
There was a time when you were enough
But baby you know you?ve damaged so much
I?m so sorry to say but you?re no love
