If you were a drug I would never get clean
I would stay in a haze to be honest
If you were the sun I would stand on the pavement
I'd get blistered and burned, hey I promise
Bright red stain and an alibi
That won't come out in the washing machine
Don't take my heart, hang it out to dry
If it falls then it'll be smithereens
High and low, you and I, we get by on a chorus
Fast or slow, friend or foe, concentrate, losing focus
And if you start to cry don't need to tumble dry
You can't wash away you and me
No no no no
And it won't fade away like when black turns to grey
Soaked in bleach
Give me an inch and maybe I'll take a mile
If you stay for awhile, I'll stay longest
If you need attention, I'll need your undivided
If you fight a good fight, I'll stay strongest
Bright red stain and an alibi
That won't come out in the washing machine
Don't take my heart, hang it out to dry
If it falls then it'll be smithereens (hey)
High and low, you and I, we get by on a chorus
Fast or slow, friend or foe, concentrate losing focus
And if you start to cry don't need to tumble dry
You can't wash away you and me
No no no no
And it won't fade away like when black turns to grey
Soaked in bleach
We cycle 'round and 'round
I'm getting sick, I'm getting dizzy
I won't be desperate
I won't whine and long for you to love me
Where moth and rust will find us
We'll start to decay
I guess forever's just a lot of todays
High and low, you and I, we get by on a chorus
Fast or slow, friend or foe, concentrate losing focus
HeyHigh and low, you and I, we get by on a chorus
Fast or slow, friend or foe, concentrate losing focus
High and low, you and I, we get by on a chorus
Fast or slow, friend or foe, concentrate losing focus
And if you start to cry don't need to tumble dry
You can't wash away you and me
No no no no
And it won't fade away like when black turns to grey
