I get mystified by how this city screams your name
In a world of boys, he's a gentleman
Every time you smile, I smile
The system's breaking down
I like the way you're everything I ever wanted
And you throw your head back laughing Like a little kid
Take me back to the house in the backyard tree
'Cause my baby's fit like a daydream
One single thread of gold tied me to you
You know it might be worth it for once
I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away
Were there clues I didn't see?
You said, "I'll never leave you alone"
Like you were a trophy or a champion ring
Show me the places where the others gave you scars
You saw me start to believe for the first time
I was supposed to sweat you out
And you looked at me, got down on one knee
He built a fire just to keep me warm
And for the first time what's past is past
