And it was enchanting to meet you All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you

And you'll save all your dirtiest jokes for me And at every table, I'll save you a seat Lover

You cinephile in black and white All those plot twists and dynamite Mr. Steal Your Girl, then make her cry You said I'm the love of your life

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh! You need to calm down You're being too loud And I'm just like 'Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh! You need to just stop (Can you stop?) Like, can you just not step on our gowns You need to calm down'

Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind Head on the pillow, I could feel you sneaking in As if you were a mythical thing Like you were a trophy or a champion ring And there was one prize I'd cheat to win

And they would toast to me, Oh, let the players play I'd be just like Leo in Saint-Tropez

And he says... Our song is the slamming screen door Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window When we're on the phone and you talk real slow 'Cause it's late and your mama don't know

I do remember the swing of your step The life of the party You're showing off again And I roll my eyes and then You pull me in I'm not much for dancing But for you I did

Walking through a crowd The village is aglow Kaleidoscope of loud Heartbeats under coats Everybody here wanted something more Searching for a sound we hadn't heard before

There's no time for tears I'm just sitting here planning my revenge There's nothing stopping me From going out with all of your best friends And if you come around saying sorry to me My daddy's gonna show you how sorry you'll be

I've been spending the last eight months Thinking all love ever does Is break and burn and end But on a Wednesday in a cafe I watched it begin again

And you'll say Don't you worry your pretty little mind People throw rocks at things that shine And life makes love look hard The stakes are high, the water's rough But this love is ours

And here's to my mama Had to listen to all this drama And here's to you 'Cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do Haha, I can't even say it with a straight face

Two headlights shine through the sleepless night And I will get you, I'll get you alone Your name has echoed through my mind

'Cause we break down a little But when you get me alone, it's so simple 'Cause baby, I know what you know We can feel it

If you could see That I'm the one who understands you Been here all along So, why can't you see You belong with me You belong with me

Maybe you ran with the wolves and refused to settle down Maybe I've stormed out of every single room in this town Threw out our cloaks and our daggers Because it's morning now It's brighter now, now

And I remember that fight Two-thirty AM As everything was slipping right out of our hands I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street

Well, you stood there with me in the doorway My hands shake I'm not usually this way But you pull me in And I'm a little more brave It's the first kiss It's flawless Really something It's fearless

So go and tell your friends That I'm obsessive and crazy That's fine I'll tell mine that you're gay! By the way...

He said, 'Let's get out of this town Drive out of this city, away from the crowds' I thought, 'Heaven can't help me now' Nothing lasts forever But this is gonna take me down

If I wanted to know Who you were hanging with While I was gone, I would've asked you It's the kind of cold Fogs up windshield glass

Please don't ever become a stranger Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere

All of that bitchin' Wishing on a falling star Never did me any good I ain't got to knock on wood It's you and me forever dancing in the dark All over me, it's understood I ain't got to knock on wood

I hear the preacher say, 'Speak now or forever hold your peace.' There's the silence, there's my last chance I stand up with shaky hands, all eyes on me Horrified looks from everyone in the room But I'm only looking at you

'She would've made such a lovely bride What a shame she's fucked in the head,' they said But you'll find the real thing instead She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred

I wanna be defined by the things that I love Not the things I hate Not the things that I'm afraid of Not the things that haunt me in the middle of the night I, I just think that You are what you love

But darling, darling, please You wouldn't take my word for it If you knew who was talking If you knew where I was walking To a house, not a home All alone 'cause nobody's there Where I pace in my pen And my friends found friends who care

Remind her how it used to be, be, yeah-yeah With pictures in frames of kisses on cheeks, cheeks Tell her how you must have lost your mind, ooh-ooh When you left her all alone And never told her why, why

I want you to know I'm a mirrorball I can change everything about me to fit in You are not like the regulars The masquerade revelers Drunk as they watch my shattered edges glisten

Holds your hand through plastic now 'Doc, I think she's crashing out' And some things you just can't speak about

Cards on the table Mine play out like fools in a fable, oh It was sinking in Sinking in, oh Slow is the quicksand Poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand Oh, still I dream of him

Half-moon eyes, bad surprise Did you realize out of time? She was on your mind With some dickhead guy That you saw that night

The master of spin Has a couple side flings Good wives always know She should be mad Should be scathing like me But no one likes a mad woman What a shame she went mad You made her like that

Sweet like honey Karma is a cat Purring in my lap 'cause it loves me Flexing like a goddamn acrobat Me and karma vibe like that (Grah)

And it's not theirs to speculate If it's wrong and Your hands are tough But they are where mine belong and I'll fight their doubt and give you faith With this song for you

What must it be like To grow up that beautiful? With your hair falling into place like dominoes I see me padding across your wooden floors With my Eagles T-shirt hanging from the door

Dark side I search for your dark side But what if I'm alright Right, right, right here? And I cut off My nose just to spite my face Then I hate my reflection For years and years

Well, I like the way your hair falls in your face You got the keys to me I love each freckle on your face, oh I've never been so wrapped up, honey I like the way you're everything I ever wanted

Salt air And the rust on your door I never needed anything more Whispers Of 'Are you sure?' 'Never have I ever before'

Seems like there's always someone who disapproves They'll judge it like they know about me and you And the verdict comes from those With nothing else to do The jury's out, but my choice is you

I hit you like bang We tried to forget it, but we just couldn't And I bury hatchets But I keep maps of where I put 'em Reputation precedes me, They told you I'm crazy I swear I don't love the drama, it loves me

I look around, turn the radio down He says, 'Baby, is something wrong?' I say, 'Nothing I was just thinking How we don't have a song'

Is this the end of all the endings? My broken bones are mending With all these nights we're spending Up on the roof with a school girl crush Drinking beer out of plastic cups Say you fancy me, not fancy stuff Baby, all at once, this is enough

So you see You could've helped if you had wanted to But no one notices until it's too late to do anything

And you flashback to When we said 'forever and always' 'Cause it rains in your bedroom Everything is wrong It rains when you're here And it rains when you're gone I was there when you said 'forever and always'

How you don't miss me In The Black Dog When someone plays 'The Starting Line' and you jump up But she's too young to know this song That was intertwined in the magic fabric of our dreaming Old habits die screaming

So I'll watch your life in pictures Like I used to watch you sleep And I feel you forget me Like I used to feel you breathe And I keep up with our old friends Just to ask them how you are Hope it's nice where you are

'Cause darling, it was good never looking down And right there where we stood was holy ground

But I felt it when I passed you There's an ache in you Put there by the ache in me But if it's all the same to you It's the same to me
