lyrics

I'm at your party and I'm all alone
I'll think about you when I'm crawling home
I don't even know what your name is
I don't even know what today is
Your storefront eyes on me - I'm glowing
Make sure your wedding ring ain't showing
Kiss me when you get some time to kill
I'm surfing out on your windowsill
Black heart like a bleeding fighter
With a voice like a teenage choir
The way you talk in shapes and colors
The way you make those dirty offers
We'll never walk for hours
You'll never steal me flowers
I'm dancing like a waterfall
To sirens wailing down your empty hall
There's nothing funny about the way I want you
There's nothing funny about the way you turn me on
There's nothing funny about the way I want you
There's nothing funny about the way you turn
I drink to the chandeliers
You woke me up after six years of my life had gone by
Now I want to be in love
Tell him that your cellphone died
I've got a heart of fireflies
Blazing so loud tonight
I'm floating high above the crowd - ta-da!
And if I never see you again
And if I never see you again, it's alright
Nope
There's nothing funny about the way I want you
There's nothing funny about the way you turn me on
There's nothing funny about the way I want you
There's nothing funny about the way you turn me on
I drink to the chandeliers
You woke me up after six years
Your two chandeliers woke me up all night long
I drink to the chandeliers
You woke me up after six years
Your two chandeliers broke me up all night long
