The Chase Lyrics by Sam Riggs

Outrun the Sun

0

[Verse 1]
You don't know and I can't say
Just how you take my breath away
So let it be, let it ride
Let it tear me up inside again

[Chorus]
Tell me why do you wait so long
Why do you keep me hanging on to whispers in the dark
And tell me what have I got to say
What have I got to do to be on the winning side of your heart
Oh it just ain't right to be one beat away from a heartbreak tonight

[Verse 2]
Every time you say my name
It feels like thunder in my veins
Sweaty palms and shaky hands
We step on the floor to dance again

[Chorus]
Tell me why do you wait so long
Why do you keep me hanging on to whispers in the dark
And tell me what have I got to say
What have I got to do to be on the winning side of your heart
Oh it just ain't right to be one beat away from a heartbreak tonight

[Chorus]
And tell me why do you wait so long
Why do you keep me hanging on to whispers in the dark
And tell me what have I got to say
What have I got to do to be on the winning side of your heart
Oh it just ain't right to be one beat away from a heartbreak tonight
(Just ain't right)
(Just ain't right)
To be one beat away from a heartbreak tonight
