[Verse 1]
She was ghosting on a high note
Like a halo from a gun
She disappeared in smoke
In the last light of the sun
I was burning my eyelids
Trying to stare into the blaze
Trying to see around the edges
But the light got in my way
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I'm desperate for a message, calling out your name
I’m sending up a raven and a dove
Trying to quell the panic rising in my chest
Like a mother at a missing persons desk
[Chorus]
'Cause I don't wanna give you up, I don’t wanna lose you now
Now that we're falling, I wanna follow you down
If you've got something to say, say it now
'Cause I'm dying to hear you
I don't wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
Oh, no
[Verse 2]
I found your letter
The first one of your name
And the bedroom window
Where your fingerprints were made
They were saying, "Come find me
You know where I am"
So I hop a plane to Paris
Each night when I'm dreaming
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Think about you every day, wonder how you’ve been
I wonder what you’re doing now
Red wine on canvas, the color of your hair
Maybe we could make it somehow
[Chorus]
'Cause I don’t wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
Now that we're falling, I wanna follow you down
If you've got something to say, say it now
I’m dying to hear you
I don't wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
Oh, no
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh-oh
(Yeah)
[Chorus]
I don't wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
Now that we're falling, I wanna follow you down
I don't wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
Now that we're falling, I wanna follow you down
(Hey, no, no, no)
If you've got something to say, say it now
I'm dying to hear you
I don't wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
I don't wanna lose you now
[Outro]
I don't wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
(I don't wanna lose you now)
I don't wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
(Oh no, I don't wanna lose you now)
I don't wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
(Oh, I don't wanna lose you now)
I don't wanna give you up, I don't wanna lose you now
