lyrics

Warm blood, soft touch
Never know it's there until you know you can never have enough
It's a sharp knife, sneak attack
Love is the horizon till it stabs you in the back

And you lean into it
Yeah, you lean into it now
And you lean into it
Yeah, you lean into it now

I'm making a pile of all my things in the backseat
You're welcome to hide there anytime you like
Stowaway like a renegade sworn to never change her ways
Always stubborn, always on my side
Then I'll find you there along the road
When I reach for my coat, don't let go

Cars fly, speed of light
Broken line, four lanes wide
Your hands in mine, our knuckles white
It's a sure fall, sudden flight
Four wide eyes, no time to fight
Sheer drop incline, sky's borderline

And you lean into it
Yeah, you lean into it now
And you lean into it
Yeah, you lean into it now

I'm making a pile of all my things in the backseat
You're welcome to hide there anytime you like
Stowaway like a renegade sworn to never change her ways
Always stubborn, always on my side
Then I'll find you there along the road
When I reach for my coat don't let go

I'm making a pile of all my things in the backseat
You're welcome to hide there anytime you like
Stowaway like a renegade sworn to never change her ways
Always stubborn, always on my side
Then I'll find you there along the road
When I reach for my coat
Don't let go
