🎤 Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
When I look into your eyes
I see the cracks beneath the waterline
There's damage from your former life
He clipped your wings but we'll relearn to fly
Oh, you're still dancing with his demons
You do your best to keep it secret
If I could help you find your freedom

[Pre-Chorus]
I'll deliver you from evil
Because you're all I ever needed
I watched the Devil get defeated

[Chorus]
I want your sweet, I want your sour, want what they'vе never seen
I want your drunken karaokе, want you singing "Jolene"
Then we'll carve our names in the bathroom stall
And if it ain't that kinda love, then I don't want it at all
I want you dancing on the table, want you making a scene
I want you acting like a nightmare while you look like a dream
Then you'll pull me close in the bathroom stall
Say if it ain't this kinda love, then you don't want it at all

[Verse 2]
Still, when I look into your eyes
I see the residue of all his lies
Someone that I don't recognise
You look so beautiful with those scars (You look so beautiful)
Oh, Lord, have mercy if I see him
Forgive me, God, I'll be a heathen
Baby, I'm going off the deep end

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause when you told me he was screaming
You were crying, heavy breathing
I just can't sleep, I can't unsee it
Want you to know you weren't the reason, oh

[Chorus]
I want your sweet, I want your sour, want what they've never seen
I want your drunken karaoke, want you singing "Jolene"
Then we'll carve our names in the bathroom stall
And if it ain't that kinda love, then I don't want it at all
I want you dancing on the table, want you making a scene
I want you acting like a nightmare while you look like a dream
Then you'll pull me close in the bathroom stall
Say if it ain't this kinda love, then you don't want it at all

[Bridge]
Oh (I want your love forevermore)
(We'll carve our names in the bathroom stall)
Oh (If it ain't, if it ain't)
(And if it ain't that kinda love, then I don't want it at all)
