Pause for a second
Breathe in
Just listen
Take miles in a minute
Then you're back to the beginning
Gemstone eyes
And your aura on high beams
One with the lightning darling
You and I
The chase goes on
It's cat and mouse
My heartbeat's strong and loud
The night drips from your mouth
You know, I know, you know just what I like
Catch you when you're running with the wind
Well I could teach you a thing or two about patience
Take my hand, catch me now I'm falling
I could show you my world where the fun never ends
You and I
The chase goes on
It's cat and mouse
My heartbeat's strong and loud
The night drips from your mouth
You know, I know, you know just what I like
You paint the perfect picture
Midnight here in my peripheral vision
Sharpen my claws
Just to pull you nearer
You could be my anti-hero
Call me up
When you're ready to go
Baby send up the flares
When you're bored and alone
When the search lights
Glare through your emerald soul
We could slink out in a labyrinth of shadows
I'd like to be
Everything that you need
Everything that you long for in your dreams
Do you talk about me in your sleep
Do you wish I was the secret you could keep?
You and I
The chase goes on
It's cat and mouse
My heartbeat's strong and loud
The night drips from your mouth
You know, I know, you know just what I like
You paint the perfect picture
Midnight here in my peripheral vision
Sharpen my claws
Just to pull you nearer
You could be my anti-hero
Talk with your hands
Cuz our echoes sink ships
I could never resist
Getting lost in the sands
In the weeds
In your hair
Shadows of your porch light
Baby I'll be there
Yeah I'll be anywhere you like
I could be all that you need
Be your sanctuary
Babe the cat's in the cradle
And the vamps run the alley
The way you say my name
It's a dark dream
The way that you call out
I'll never be the same
In my heartbeat
Hear the way that it rings out
I guess we'll never change
I guess we'll never rearrange
All the stars
In the heavens
In our hearts
All our atoms spark up
Our shadows in the dark
You and I
The chase goes on
It's cat and mouse
My heartbeat's strong and loud
The night drips from your mouth
You know, I know, you know just what I like
You paint the perfect picture
Midnight here in my peripheral vision
Sharpen my claws
Just to pull you nearer
You could be my anti-hero
