[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Im walking fast through the traffic lights
~#**************#~
Busy streets and busy lives
~#**************#~
And all we know is touch and go
~#**************#~
We are alone with our changing minds
~#**************#~
We fall in love til it hurts or bleeds
~#**************#~
Or fades in time
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
And I never (Never)
~#**************#~
Saw you coming
~#**************#~
And I’ll never (Never)
~#**************#~
Be the same
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
You come around and the armor falls
~#**************#~
Pierce the room like a cannonball
~#**************#~
Now, all we know is don’t let go
~#**************#~
We are alone, just you and me
~#**************#~
Up in your room and our slates are clean
~#**************#~
Just twin fire signs, four blue eyes
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
So you were never a saint
~#**************#~
And Ive loved in shades of wrong
~#**************#~
We learn to live with the pain
~#**************#~
Mosaic broken hearts
~#**************#~
But this love is brave and wild
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
And I never (Never)
~#**************#~
Saw you coming
~#**************#~
And I’ll never (Never)
~#**************#~
Be the same
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
This is a state of grace
~#**************#~
This is the worthwhile fight
~#**************#~
Love is a ruthless game
~#**************#~
Unless you play it good and right
~#**************#~
These are the hands of fate
~#**************#~
You’re my Achilles heel
~#**************#~
This is the golden age
~#**************#~
Of something good and right and real
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
And I never (Never)
~#**************#~
Saw you coming
~#**************#~
And I’ll never
~#**************#~
Be the same
~#**************#~
And I never (Never)
~#**************#~
Saw you coming
~#**************#~
And I’ll never (So you were never a saint)
~#**************#~
(And Ive loved in shades of wrong)
~#**************#~
Be the same (We learn to live with the pain)
~#**************#~
(Mosaic broken hearts)
~#**************#~
(But this love is brave and wild)
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
This is a state of grace
~#**************#~
This is the worthwhile fight
~#**************#~
Love is a ruthless game
~#**************#~
Unless you play it good and right
