Verse:
I break on your rocks.
You'd watch me swim the widest lake to be close to you.
And I could flee from here to somewhere fear could only dream of breaking my resolve.
But I'm just a foreign taste.
Chorus:
Oh oh, oh ohhh.
Oh oh, oh ohhh.
You're like a warm embrace; I'm like an icy stare.
But you're the make-up of the face you wear.
You're like a summer coast; I am the winter freeze.
But you're the stellar hostess.
Verse:
I'd mark every single blade of grass in this park if I could share that bench with you.
And I'd shine by using one of my old lines.
And I would your take your hand.
But that's just a charming end.
Chorus:
Oh oh, oh ohhh.
Oh oh, oh ohhh.
You're gonna take the world; I'm gonna take my leave.
But you're the ghost. Girl, you're the hope I need.
You're like a bright mirage; I'm like an awkward truth.
But you're the striking actress.
Bridge:
And I could walk there now.
And I could walk there now.
And I could walk there now.
Chorus:
(softly)
Oh oh, oh ohhh.
Oh oh, oh ohhh.
You're like a warm embrace; I'm like an icy stare.
But you're the make-up of the face you wear.
You're like a summer coast; I am the winter freeze.
But you're the stellar hostess.
