You say that I'm lost
Like a California highway
cnd you say
That if it were my way
We'd be a perfect disaster, a cinematic masterpiece of shame

So why did I
Not wanna fall when I'd fall so far for you
If I'm hung out and broken, you mend all the pieces
It's a gamble, it's a break
It's a risk you want to take
With me
But I

I didn't wanna love again
But now we're slow dancing
I say to all my friends
That I wasn't ready
For the falling and crying and chasing and losing
Won't hear a thing
But you say it oh so, so, sweetly
Yeah you say it so sweetly

Couldn't get it off my chest
So instead we get in bed
cnd you said
We're doing dinner with your mom again
So you beg me to share all my secrets and the worst of truths

So why does it feel like
The higher you take me the further I'll fall
Thought it was worse to love me than to not love at all
It's a forfeit, I'll surrender
‘Cause I trust it gets better with you
But I

I didn't wanna love again
But now we're slow dancing
I say to all my friends
That I wasn't ready
For the falling and crying and chasing and losing
Won't hear a thing
But you say it oh so, so, sweetly
Yeah you say it so sweetly

cnd if I cross my heart and I swear to god
That I'd love you, I meant to
Tell you that I'd love you until it ends
Won't let it end

Didn't wanna love again
But maybe you're what I need
I say to all my friends
That I think i'm ready
For the falling and crying
‘Cause love is a promise I keep
When you say it oh, so, so sweetly
Yeah you say it so sweetly
Yeah you say it so
Yeah you say it so sweetly
