It's like we're walking a wire
And we're scared of the height.
It's like we're caught in a fire
And it's burning our eyes.
But every time we run away,
I still miss you every day-
And I know that you're feeling the same.
I surrender this war-
Got my hands out for more.
Forget about the world tonight-
And everything that isn't right.
Just wrap yourself around me-
As the universe collides.
It's alright, say goodnight-
Nothing's ever perfect.
So just close your eyes-
Just close your eyes,
And forget about the world tonight.
Yeah-
We were two kids in high school
Playing love by the rules.
But now we're two lovers
Longing for the youth that we knew.
We both wanna make it last,
But we're haunted by the past,
And I just can't keep living this way.
I surrender this war-
Got my hands out for more.
Forget about the world tonight-
And everything that isn't right.
Just wrap yourself around me-
As the universe collides.
It's alright, say goodnight-
Nothing's ever perfect.
So just close your eyes-
Just close your eyes,
And forget about the world tonight.
Forget about the bills,
Forget about your pills,
Forget about your broke-down Volvo.
Forget about the clicks-
The fakers, they hate today
Just like they hate tomorrow.
We're still going strong-
Those folks never thought we'd last so long.
When everything else in this life collides,
Let's forget about the world tonight-
Yeah, forget about the world tonight.
Yeah.
Forget about the world tonight-
And everything that isn't right.
Just wrap yourself around me-
As the universe collides.
It's alright, say goodnight-
Nothing's ever perfect.
So just close your eyes-
Just close your eyes,
And forget about the world tonight.
It's alright, say goodnight-
Nothing's ever perfect.
So just close your eyes-
Just close your eyes,
And forget about the world tonight.
