    May 21, 2021 / No Comments

    These days the lovers trade their places
    Dancing all around each other’s chairs
    I can see the numbness on their faces
    Jealousy fills up their hearts in pairs
    So please could I be selfish with your body?
    ‘Cause I don’t think I could share you with nobody

    Oh when I have you
    I’m gonna brand you with my lips
    And all of the world will know that you’re mine now
    We’ll never lose faith
    ‘Cause we’ll never forget this taste
    My love has the power to keep the tide down

    Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
    Ohh ill get you tied down, tied down

    Ohh, late at night you’ll hear the screaming echo
    But we all pretend we never heard the cries in the daytime
    Don’t you worry my touch won’t leave you hollow
    I’m never going to let you change your mind

    Oh, when I have you
    I’m gonna brand you with my lips
    And all of the world will know that you’re mine now
    We’ll never lose faith
    ‘Cause we’ll never forget this taste
    My love has the power to keep your tied down

    Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
    Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
    Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied, ohh
    Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down

    Don’t be afraid to leave your mark
    Give me the scars to remind me
    Just how good you are (how good you are)
    And if your faith turns into to dark
    Pull me closer and know
    That it’s enough to keep you tied down

    Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
    Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
    Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down
    Ohh, I’ll get you tied down, tied down

    Tied down
    Ohh

    Snow moon cuts the river
    Into a thousand lights
    Dancing for us
    Dancing for us
    Jasmine on the breeze fills my room
    And perfumes my nights
    Dreaming for us
    Dreaming for us

    So don’t worry ’bout it
    The seasons were on our side
    It was you before all of this
    And now it’s you for a life
    No, don’t worry ’bout it
    The seasons were on our side
    Even the greatest ideas
    Have a life and die

    Summer rain, the sky screams
    With the things we can’t say
    Speaking for us
    Speaking for us
    Leaves hang in the wind
    On their way to decay
    Ending for us
    Ending for us

    So don’t worry ’bout it
    The seasons were on our side
    Even the greatest ideas
    Have a life and die
    No, don’t worry ’bout it
    The seasons were on our side
    It was you before all of this
    Now it’s you for a life

    (For the first time)
    (For the first time)
    (For the first time)
    (For the first time)
    And I feel it come
    Feel it flood my lungs
    Cut me into strips
    I have come undone
    And I feel it come
    Feel it flood my lungs
    Cut me into strips
    I have come undone
    I have come undone
    I have come undone
    I have come undone
    I have come undone
    (For the first time)

    I have come undone
