lyrics
Something tells me first impressions are up
Emerald eyes and I'm stuck
Tear a page from the book
I've got my head in the clouds
You got my heart as it pounds
But honey it's a long ways down
Hey! Lets follow up the smile
There’s poison in your style
Let’s make it worth the while
(And I feel sick now)
Hey! My Mind is running’ late
You’re quick to me, sedate
I’m fighting not to take the bait
Oh, but I can’t let go
You’re so contagious to me
It starts as soon as you leave
Baby I’m falling down
Tryn’a shake this disease
Maybe sooner or later
I wish you would see
What you’re doin’
You’re so contagious to me!
Every place that we called Here
Found a place to disappear
Found a trail of broken things
Leading back to you and me
Oh, and I love the way you kiss like a snake
How all the smiles were fake
My heart won’t bend, but it might break
You put the Sin in Sincere
Just like the Good in Goodbye
And now you’ve undone the Nots
That I could never untie
I’ll start from the end
I’ll find a heart that can rhyme
Like every sun in the West
With every color of mine
(Maybe I was right the first time)
(Maybe I was right the first time)
Emerald eyes and I'm stuck
Tear a page from the book
I've got my head in the clouds
You got my heart as it pounds
But honey it's a long ways down
Hey! Lets follow up the smile
There’s poison in your style
Let’s make it worth the while
(And I feel sick now)
Hey! My Mind is running’ late
You’re quick to me, sedate
I’m fighting not to take the bait
Oh, but I can’t let go
You’re so contagious to me
It starts as soon as you leave
Baby I’m falling down
Tryn’a shake this disease
Maybe sooner or later
I wish you would see
What you’re doin’
You’re so contagious to me!
Every place that we called Here
Found a place to disappear
Found a trail of broken things
Leading back to you and me
Oh, and I love the way you kiss like a snake
How all the smiles were fake
My heart won’t bend, but it might break
You put the Sin in Sincere
Just like the Good in Goodbye
And now you’ve undone the Nots
That I could never untie
I’ll start from the end
I’ll find a heart that can rhyme
Like every sun in the West
With every color of mine
(Maybe I was right the first time)
(Maybe I was right the first time)
