We’re sipping cocktails, looking down upon the riot
He whispered, “Baby, love the way you look tonight
I wanna save you, save you from the world outside.”
I know it seems you’re all I wanted and much more
But then, to tell the truth, I’ve been through this before
They say, “I’ll save you, save you”
But they never do
I think you know I want to believe you
But in my heart I know that I’ll leave you
It’s sort of sad how instincts deceive you
Or does it please you?
Everything you say makes me wanna stay
But everything you’ve done makes me wanna run, run, run
Chorus:
I make the decision that I can’t be with you
Walking out the door but I already miss you
Forget about how I used to kiss you
But I’m getting butterflies
I’m getting butterflies
I make the decision that I’m too good for you
When I see you calling, it’s hard to ignore you
Try to be strong but, babe, I adore you
I’m getting butterflies
I’m getting butterflies
Back in high school in the yard, we used to fight
But you would sneak in through my window every night
I wanna take you, take you, to the world outside
Well, I assumed it’s what I wanted at the time
But your eyes were like a constant warning sign
I wanna take you, take you, and I didn’t mind
And even then I didn’t believe you
You had a smile so easy to see through
I know a little, but I know I’ll always need you
Try to reach you, try to please you
Everything you say makes me wanna stay
But everything you’ve done makes me wanna run, run, run
Chorus:
I make the decision that I can’t be with you
Walking out the door but I already miss you
Forget about how I used to kiss you
But I’m getting butterflies
I’m getting butterflies
I make the decision that I’m too good for you
When I see you calling, it’s hard to ignore you
Try to be strong but, babe, I adore you
I’m getting butterflies
I’m getting butterflies
I know, I know, I know we aren’t good together
I can’t let go I’m sure that we should be forever
I look around there’s no one above you
I think you know that I’ll always love you
And baby I’m bad, too, it’s not just you
But I can’t wait forever to trust you
Everything you say makes me wanna stay
But everything you’ve done makes me wanna run, run, run
Chorus:
I make the decision that I can’t be with you
Walking out the door but I already miss you
Forget about how I used to kiss you
But I’m getting butterflies
I’m getting butterflies
I make the decision that I’m too good for you
When I see you calling, it’s hard to ignore you
Try to be strong but, babe, I adore you
I’m getting butterflies
I’m getting butterflies
