Reckless Lover Lyrics by Handsome Ghost

Welcome Back

2017

[Verse 1]
Honestly, you said I think we need a miracle
Evening heat and you were tired of a love fit for a theme park ride
Motioning, hail a cab head for the airport
Empty street but I was never one for short endings or cheap goodbyes

[Chorus]
I'm a reckless lover, you already know
In the sweet, sweet summer, I'm here on your coast
And I call your number, we meet at the late show
I, I never let it, I couldn't let it go
The night's not over, come on tell me it's not
And I'll drive you home after the city has stopped
And we both know better, maybe we don't though
I, I never let it, I couldn't let it go
I couldn't let it go

[Verse 2]
Lie to me, tell me all about the west coast
Focusing, say it's everything you dreamed it be
Truthfully, I'm not doing any better though
I try to sleep, but my mind is running overtime all night endlessly

[Chorus]
I'm a reckless lover, you already know
In the sweet, sweet summer, I'm here on your coast
And I call your number, we meet at the late show
I, I never let it, I couldn't let it go
The night's not over, come on tell me it's not
And I'll drive you home after the city has stopped
And we both know better, maybe we don't though
I, I never let it, I couldn't let it go
I couldn't let it go
I couldn't let it go

[Chorus]
I'm a reckless lover, you already know
In the sweet, sweet summer, I'm here on your coast
And I call your number, we meet at the late show
I, I never let it, I couldn't let it go
The night's not over, come on tell me it's not
And I'll drive you home after the city has stopped
And we both know better, maybe we don't though
I, I never let it, I couldn't let it go
I couldn't let it go
I couldn't let it go
