[Verse 1]
Tilt back, take half of the fifth
I know when to start
I don’t know when to quit
You call and I can’t resist
You’re the first of your kind
And the last on my lips

[Pre-Chorus]
I know you’re working hard
So you can stay, if you don’t break my heart
Sometimes I don’t know what I want
Until you take it away

[Chorus]
All the tears that I cry
All the ways I get by
To keep the feeling alive (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
I see the pain in your eyes
It’s only shame in goodbye
So don’t leave me here on my own

[Verse 2]
Hey, thanks for the dance and the kiss
White lightning I go, until you pull me back in
He’s bright when everything dims
And no one is mine, if no one is him

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, let’s not make this hard
Sometimes I shy away so I don’t fall apart
But now I wish on every star
That you don’t walk away
I said, “Now, let’s not make this hard”
It’s my religious shame that keeps me en garde
Sometimes I don’t know what I want
Until I can’t have my way

[Chorus]
All the tears that I cry
All the ways I get by
To keep the feeling alive (Ah, ah, ah, ah)
I see the pain in your eyes
It’s only shame in goodbye
So don’t leave me here on my own
