Pastel

Safe house
All that can’t be seen in the daylight
Just in our hearts
When we met we just fit right
Now we’re too busy fighting old fights
Love in the dark

And I know we’re both thinking
What we never say

It’s not quite how we wanted
It doesn’t matter if you talk about it, and I talk about it, yeah we know
It’s not quite how we wanted it
You got me going where I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go

Can someone throw me a lifeline
We were tied to love at the same time
Now we’re going down
Don’t you know we’re both on the same side?
If we flew once, you’d think we’d think twice
Ever coming down

And you say we think too much, And I think I’ll never say
And we try to shake it off, but we feel it anyway

It’s not quite how we wanted
It doesn’t matter if you talk about it, and I talk about it, yeah we know
It’s not quite how we wanted it
You got me going where I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go

It’s not quite how we wanted
Can you tell me how to change my mind?
I don’t want to leave this love high and dry
I can tell what you’re thinking now
What we’ve avoided all this time
But I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go

It’s not quite how we wanted
It doesn’t matter if you talk about it, and I talk about it, yeah we know
It’s not quite how we wanted it
You got me going where I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go
It’s not quite how we wanted
It’s not quite how we wanted it
You got me going where I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go, I don’t want to go

I don’t want to let this go
I was all alone like you
Hold back ‘cause everyone knows
I was holding out on you

Everybody can front like this
Everybody chill out right now
Coming down to why we pay mind to anyone
Why we play, like ‘cause everybody knows
Everybody can love like this
Everybody can love like that
Fine with that
But so what? You got me, we got our love, like everyone else

Don’t want to give up my soul
I was down and out like you
Forget about my self-control
All I thought about was you

Everybody can front like this
Everybody chill out right now
Coming down to why we pay mind to anyone
Why we play, like ‘cause everybody knows
Everybody can love like this
Everybody can love like that
Fine with that
But so what? You got me, we got our love

All the apparitions they come at me like this
And every kind of story I worry I might miss
Every time I look up, I’m running from mine
We got off and we can’t recover the time

If I could I’d go back and stand in the same place
I’d do anything just to see you the same way
I don’t care for nothing as long as you're mine
We got off, recover the time

Everybody can front like this
Everybody chill out right now
Coming down to why we pay mind to anyone
Why we play, like ‘cause everybody knows
Everybody can love like this
Everybody can love like that
Fine with that
But so what? You got me, we got our love, like everyone else

No, it’s not how my mama said
I’d be calling all night but we’re already dead
And the craziest thing about love
You could promise yourself you never had her
I could pick up the pieces all I want
I’m always putting me back together

Every time I’m touched by a lovely lady
I‘m in love again
I try to give it up, but it’s running in my blood
I feel the rush nearly every day
And I’m in love again
I’m terrified of ending up alone, and you know I’m wondering
Will we be just friends?
Will we be just friends then?

It doesn’t matter what I think I know
I can swear that I’m not better off on my own
I can take on anything, no lie
When I’m picturing you and me together
Don’t tell me I don’t know what I want
And I can’t love her coz I never met her

Every time I’m touched by a lovely lady
I‘m in love again
I try to give it up, but it’s running in my blood
I feel the rush nearly every day
And I’m in love again
I’m terrified of ending up alone, and you know I’m wondering
Will we be just friends?
Will we be just friends then?

Lately I've been talking
Laying under moonlight
Hanging on a phone light in the dark

When you call me up
'Cause it's never just you and me

Baby, what's on your mind?
I wonder sometimes if you're holding out, holding out
When I get you alone, I never stop running my mouth

But I've got you on my tongue, babe
Painted on my clothes
Wake up, I've got you in my lungs, babe
Hanging on the door
Tempt you with one light on

Lately I just say nothing
I'm hoping that you want me in the very same way

Baby, call me up
Baby, call me up
I just want to be with you in all the same places

I don't care what they say,
You've got me in the palm of your, palm of your hand

But I've got you on my tongue, babe
Painted on my clothes
Wake up, I've got you in my lungs, babe
Hanging on the door
Tempt you with one light on

Baby, it's late now
Call me
I wait for the phone ring
I want you like novocaine

The way you haunt me
Your perfume on me
You've got me in the palm of your hand

But I've got you on my tongue, babe
Painted on my clothes
Wake up, I've got you in my lungs, babe
Hanging on the door
Tempt you with one light on

Say what you’re going to say, and leave
Just run away
Everybody’s got their way around the words they want to say
And listen to only what they want to know

Don’t you know how bad it hurts?
Don’t you know we’re wanting, loving nothing?
Don’t you know how bad it hurts?
Don’t you know we’re wanting, loving nothing?

Mercy, I call it all the time
But nor will I bat an eye or wave, yeah
Oh, and is this how to be?

Aren’t you clever, hate is so eclectic
Won’t get better if you don’t let it
And if you won’t let me get away, get away

Believe, believe what you want and
We’ll number our days, find us counting them below
Believe, believe what you want and
Throwing hard as you may
But where we gonna go?

Don’t you know how bad it hurts?
Don’t you know we’re wanting, loving nothing?
Don’t you know how bad it hurts?
Don’t you know we’re wanting, loving nothing?
