Wake up people to a new morning:
[Chorus 1]
You don’t have my number
We don’t need each other now
We don’t need the city
The creed or the culture now
[Post-Chorus 1]
Cause I feel the colour, I feel alive
I feel the colour, I feel alive
I feel the streets are all pulling me down
[Verse 1]
So people of the city
I don’t need your counsel now
And I don’t need your good advice
Cause you don’t have my lover’s touch
[Chorus 2]
You don’t have my number
We don’t need each other now
The creed or the culture
We can move beyond it now
[Verse 2]
Now the wolf is knocking at my door
Bang-bang, it ask for more
Stand here, we stand tall
And we can move beyond these walls
[Verse 3]
I don’t need your counsel
I don’t need these city streets
I don’t need that good advice
Cause we can move beyond it now
[Chorus 3]
You don’t have my number
We don’t need each other now
The queen or the culture
You don’t have my lover’s touch
[Post-Chorus 2]
Cause I feel the colour, I feel alive
I feel the colour, I feel alive
I feel the streets are now far from here
[Bridge]
Do you even hear me?
Do you even know my name?
Can you see the ocean there?
You don't have my number love
(You don’t have my number)
(You don’t have my number)
And I wonder can you hear me?
And are you even listening now?
[Chorus 4]
Cause you don’t have my number
And we don’t need each other now
You can’t steal my thunder
Cause you don’t have my lover’s touch
[Chorus 5]
You don’t have my number
And I don’t need no one now
And I don’t need these city streets
The creed or the culture now
Now
Now
[Verse 1]
I'm not into burning bridges
But I'll never leave the same
Pull me up and out the deep end
No one wins this game
Warmer than the air in summer
Brings a winter's sting
How come you know how to hold me
Like you never did
[Chorus]
Young love, die hard
Only seconds and I'm turning back the time
Light years gone by don't mean a thing
Young love, old scars
Pulling stitches 'til they all come out and I'm
Back on the bed you left me in
[Verse 2]
Always had the heart to mean it
'Til I gave away the key
Tell me every bed you sleep in
Do you think of me?
Guess I never saw it coming
Even with the tide
Tying up a thousand loose ends
Like we never died
[Chorus]
Young love, die hard
Only seconds and I'm turning back the time
Light years gone by don't mean a thing
Young love, old scars
Pulling stitches 'til they all come out and I'm
Back on the bed you left me in
[Bridge]
Thought I'd outrun it
Thought I left you easy
But with the room lit
How'd I ever believe me
Never stayed to breathe it in
There are marks under my skin
Burning like they never did now
All of which I never knew
Has me coming back to you
Burning like we always knew how
Never stayed to breathe it in
There are marks under my skin
Burning like they never did now
All of which I never knew
Has me coming back to you
Burning like we always knew how
[Chorus]
Young love, die hard
Only seconds and I'm turning back the time
Light years gone by don't mean a thing
Young love, old scars
Pulling stitches 'til they all come out and I'm
Back on the bed you left me in
[Outro]
Thought I saw you in the city
Calling out my name
But you were a ghost of pity
Looking just the same
Never meant to break my own promises
Never meant to break my own promises
(Promises, promises, promises, promises)
Again with excuses and generally wastin' my time
Not findin' solutions, just seekin' my peace of mind
No hocus or pocus, my focus is drunk on the floor
And mumbling something about, "one more!"
I'm fallin' across the line
Keep punchin' pedals at the amber lights
And I cross my heart and hope to die
Unless I happen to lie, I
Never meant to break my own promises
Never meant to break my own promises
Oh, one more night, I said it the last time
This is the last time, I'll say it a million more
Never meant to my break my own promises
Break my own promises
(Promises, promises, promises, promises)
I said I was tryin', I really was drivin' the coast
The fight or the flight, well, I side with the latter most
It almost is laughable, but when I chuckle, I choke
Can't get the words out my throat, oh, one more
Is that my lion's pride?
I meet my mountain then I run and hide
And I cross my heart and hope to die
Unless I happen to lie, I
Never meant to break my own promises
Never meant to break my own promises
Oh, one more night, I said it the last time
This is the last time, I'll say it a million more
Never meant to my break my own promises
Break my own promises
(Promises, promises, promises, promises)
[Chorus]
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
[Verse 1]
I should know better than to take your love letters to heart
When the game's already lost before it starts
But hope hides inside the cliché
Like a nod of understanding
From the poet who first felt this way
How can I turn away?
[Chorus]
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
[Verse 2]
But every little pull at the end of the golden rope
Fills my foolish heart with foolish hope
That maybe you might feel the same
As if feeling the same was the name of the game
The name of the game
I shouldn't be playing
[Chorus]
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
[Bridge]
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
I shouldn't be playing
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
[Chorus]
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a moth to the flame
I can't help it, I'm a, a
He's that kinda man, mama
[Outro]
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
Close enough, close enough
Close enough to you, I can't get
He's that kinda man, mama
Thinking of you I lie awake
Longing to suffocate
Spilling my tears as you turn away
Light cast onto a memory
Darkens the scenery
I can’t know you the way you know me
Visions of you through clouds of smoke
Inhale until I choke
Filling my lungs but now I’m alone
Cold as an emptiness consumes
Rain dripping in my wounds
You don’t want me the way I want you
