lyrics

I see you sometimes,
But we don't talk, and I don't smile.
I'm a wretch at best; a shallow mess,
With empty heart and empty threats.
And I could be discrete; I could hold my tongue.
But the greatest joke that the devil ever played was love.

Stay the night; I need to feel your body heat by my side.
Tell me that I'll be alright.
Stay the night; I need to feel your body heat by my side.
I need some time, because the hope inside me doesn't seem to burn as bright.

I remember your hands on my face,
The heat in your breath when you exhaled
When we drove out beneath the stars,
And we made love out the back of my car.
And I could be discrete; I could hold my tongue.
But the greatest joke that the devil ever played was love.

Stay the night; I need to feel your body heat by my side.
Tell me that I'll be alright.
Stay the night; I need to feel your body heat by my side.
I need some time, because the hope inside me doesn't seem to burn as bright.

My fortitude, I thought, would carry me through,
Because I used to be so strong,
But I gave all my strength away to you.
I gave all my strength away to you.

Stay the night; I need to feel your body heat by my side.
Tell me that I'll be alright.
Stay the night; I need to feel your body heat by my side.
I need some time, because the hope inside me doesn't seem to burn as bright.
