Porch Light Lyrics by Ourselves + Others

Porch Light - Single

2019

[Verse 1]
Did you notice me linger when I hugged you last?
A new and nervous love
Compelled me to hold you longer
A love like this makes kids feel like adults
But kids don’t cry
Like adults do
[Chorus]
If you were a porch light
Then I was a moth who got too close
And if you were the sun
Oh, I was a moth who got too close
And burned
And I loved it
[Verse 2]
Partners in crime
Murdering hearts at night
You and I‚ sharing fries
Over a pile of dead bodies
We’re seventeen
(We’re seventeen)
Being exposed to the whole
Of another human being
[Chorus]
If you were a porch light
Then I was a moth who got too close
And if you were the sun
Oh‚ I was a moth who got too close
And burned
And I loved it
[Hook]
I love it‚ I love it
I love it, I love it
I love it, I love it
I love it‚ I love it
[Bridge]
(I love it, I love it)
My hair’s on fire and I love it
(I love it, I love it)
I got smoke in my eyes and I love it
(I love it‚ I love it)
My face feels a little bit offset
(I love it, I love it)
My heart’s broken again and I love it
(I love it, I love it)
My hair’s on fire and I love it
(I love it, I love it)
I got smoke in my eyes and I love it
(I love it, I love it)
My face feels a little bit offset
(I love it, I love it)
My heart’s broken again and I love it
My hair’s on fire and I love it
I got smoke in my eyes and I love it
My face feels a little bit offset
My heart’s broken again and I lo-
(My hair’s on fire
Got smoke in my eyes
I said my hair’s on fire
And I’m missing a toe)
Ah, oh, oh
(All my heart desires
Is the look in your eyes)
Oh, oh
(My heart’s on fire
My heart’s on fire)
[Chorus]
If you were a porch light
Then I was a moth who got too close
And if you were the sun
Oh, I was a moth who got too close
And burned
And I loved it
[Hook]
I love it, I love it
I love it, I love it
I love it, I love it
I love it, I love it
Yeah
I love it, I love it
I love it, I love it
I love it, I love it
I love it, I love it
[Outro]
Did you notice me linger when I hugged you last?
