[Verse 1]
Someone to watch over me
I couldn't ask you for more
Why do I long to be free
But cry when you walk out the door?
[Pre-Chorus]
You got me going round like a record now
I wanna show my love but I don't know how
I know that I'm a mess but I pray you'll stick around
[Chorus]
Take me to your downtown rivers and your dried-out cities
I could compromise my rhythm
So we both go slow
Take me to your tree tops growing up
In your dried-out cities
If you get my heart it will never stop
But we'll both go slow
[Verse 2]
Lovers get lost in the sky
Gone in a blink of an eye
Let's make our own legacy
Chiseled in stone we will be
[Pre-Chorus]
You got me going round like a record babe
It's coming over me a like a sudden wave
I know that I'm a mess but I pray that you'll stay
[Chorus]
Take me to your downtown rivers and your dried-out cities
I could compromise my rhythm
So we both go slow
Take me to your tree tops growing up
In your dried-out cities
If you get my heart it will never stop
But we'll both go slow
[Bridge]
Take me to your downtown rivers
Turn me to a sea of shivers
Everything I see is clearer when the lights are low
Take me to your dried-out cities
Everything you see is pretty
I can see it all through your eyes like they're my own
[Chorus]
Take me to your downtown rivers and your dried-out cities
I could compromise my rhythm
So we both go slow
Take me to your tree tops growing up
In your dried-out cities
If you get my heart it will never stop
But we'll both go slow
