Verse 1

You held the room with a half-smile

Black coat, calm eyes, measured style

I saw you cross that crowded floor

Then watched you leave, and wanted more

For twelve long months I kept my place

A name, a glance, the turn of your face

Now every careful line I drew

Leads straight across the room to you

Pre-Chorus

I know the risk, I know the cost

One wrong move and all is lost

Still I step where I shouldn’t go

You’re the one thing I can’t let go

Chorus

I love you past the point of control

You pull the match, I burn through the whole

World that I built, every rule I defend
