T-t-t-t-t-t-touch If one of these two walls could speak I'd turn the, lights down long enough to hit repeat (babe)
Right now my vision is gone, and magic's to blame It's silent down here, hey I want to get loud again You'll hold the thunder while I bring the rain
I might be busy doing nothing but I've had my share You've got a strange infatuation with a love that's in the air
Contact high I'm done dreamin' that we can fly Am I guilty? Boy you decide I've got nothing to hide
Four letter words won't hold any sway (uh uh) Here in a paradise that shakes the word romantic to the bone Mystical forces are circling me, while perfect nostalgia is dating the enemy Lost in the ether with no one to blame It's silent down here, maybe I want to get loud again
Contact high I'm done dreamin' that we can fly Am I guilty? Boy you decide I've got nothing to hide
(When we touch I get a) Contact high I'm done leaving if we can try Am I guilty? Boy you decide I've got nothing to hide
I might be busy doing nothing but I've had my share You've got a strange infatuation with a love that's in the air
Contact high I'm done dreaming that we can fly Am I guilty? Boy you decide I've got nothing to hide (When we touch I get a) Contact high...contact high...contact high
This escapee was never gonna stay On an unfamiliar building on the rooftop where we lay Where all the constellations shine to pave the way Temptation's not a word until we've let it go astray And I won't delete it He won't delete it
Light bolts hover over you all day Oh darkness can be difficult like needles in the hay I need to flick the switch and show you how to hide And love is not the answer if you're taking me for a ride
This escapee was never gonna stay On an island way too difficult to be stuck in a daze And all the competition's overcome what may Temptation's not a word until we've let it go astray And I won't delete it He won't delete it
