I've been staying up, tracing footsteps
Like walking from your dorm room late at night, baby
Talk to me the way you would that winter
When I fell for you, like jumping from a bridge
I can hear you promise in the springtime
When you didn't know that much about me yet, reckless
Hold me like the way you would in summer
Let's pretend we wouldn't change a thing
Cut the cords that bind you to me
You know i'm a slave to them
I wanna love you recklessly
Not anchor you to me
Now is not the time for you to
Whisper sweet things to me
I'm not the one you want at all
A capella singers in the Village
Your sister's got a boyfriend, she's in love, baby
You and me keep going round in circles
Acting out some roles we never knew
Cut the cords that bind you to me
You know I'm a slave to them
I wanna love you breathless
Like my body in the sea
Now is not the time for you to
Whisper sweet things to me
I'm not the one you want at all
Even as you call for me again
I would always be alone with you
I could only be alone
I would always be alone for you
I could only be alone
