Don’t Look Away

In my chest

There’s a ticking noise

Like some kind of bomb

Made by little boys.

I watch the time go by

And I think my time is running out.

To make you decide

That I’m the one you can’t live without.

Stare at me forever

I’ll be beautiful.

 

In your eyes.

There’s a sun.

There’s a time I feel I’m the only one.

In your eyes

Oh in your eyes,

I’m not afraid.

Don’t look away.

 

In this day

There’s a broken hour

Like some kind of map

To a broken place.

I watch the rain dry up

And head into the clouds.

Don’t let your love dry up

Make me cry out loud.

Stare at me forever.

I’ll be beautiful.

 

In your eyes.

There’s a sun.

There’s a time I feel I’m the only one.

In your eyes

Oh in your eyes,

I’m not afraid.

Don’t look away.

Whole

I read about you in the stars,

They told me of your shine.

And so I thought if you could love me

The whole world could be mine.

And I was right.

Oh you make it right.

 

That’s why I wear

That smile you gave me

That’s why I find

That part of me I like

That’s why I feel

Like nothing could ever break me

That’s why I tell you

I honestly love that you’re mine.

 

I am a tourist in your heart,

But I hope I’ve found a home, here

I’ve found some part of me,

You are what I have never known, and,

This love is something real,

So please don’t ever let me go, cause

Everything inside of me,

Loves you as a whole.

 

That’s why I wear

That smile you gave me

That’s why I find

That part of me I like

That’s why I feel

Like nothing could ever break me

That’s why I tell you

I honestly love that you’re mine.

 

I look for you in everything

Cause you’re what I wanna see.

In my everyday adventures,

You are the happy ending.

 

That’s why I wear

That smile you gave me

That’s why I find

That part of me I like

That’s why I feel

Like nothing could ever break me

That’s why I tell you

I honestly love that you’re mine.

 

I read about you in the stars,

They told me of your shine.

And so I thought if you could love me

The whole world could be mine.

And I was right.

Let Me Down

I’m so crazy

Cause you and your lips

They say all these things

And then when we kiss

Cause only you say

The things I can’t

Put em on my tongue

Like nobody can

 

Save me now

Don’t let me down

I’m sorry for expecting you

To be the one to get me through

Save me now

Don’t let me down

 

I’m so selfish

With you and your eyes

I want them on me

All of the time

Cause only you see

The things I can’t

The good in me

Like nobody can

 

Save me now

Don’t let me down

I’m sorry for expecting you

To be the one to get me through

Save me now

Don’t let me down

Just know

You never could

No matter what you said you’d never let me down

You never could; you’d never let me

 

Save me now

Don’t let me down

I’m sorry for expecting you

To be the one to get me through

Save me now

Don’t let me down
