Lyrics:
I've bandaged your bruises, you've held back my hair
Who'd've known when this started that we'd end up here, here?
But you reach out and touch me, say my name like a prayer
All my friends say you're dangerous, but I don't f-cking care
'Cause there's something about it that brings me to life
Yeah, I know all the consequences, I don't mind
This holy redemption tears us in two
But I can't turn my back to you
Wearing your t-shirt, I'm queen of the night
One hand on the wheel, and one hand on my thigh
And I know it sounds crazy, but babe I am too
I just can't turn my back to you
When the night goes quiet and we're up in your room
And you're kissing my fingers, and I kiss your tattoos
I could play in bed with you and talk shit forever-ever
If this is all a dream, wake me up never, never, never
Swear to God, cross my heart, no one does it better, better
Boy I love ya, always gonna
'Cause there's something about it that brings me to life
Yeah, I know all the consequences, I don't mind
This holy redemption tears us in two
But I can't turn my back to you
Wearing your t-shirt, I'm queen of the night
One hand on the wheel, and one hand on my thigh
And I know it sounds crazy, but babe I am too
I just can't turn my back to you
Something about it that brings me to life
Yeah, I know all the consequences, I don't mind
This holy redemption tears us in two
I can't turn my back to you
Wearing your t-shirt, I'm queen of the night
One hand on the wheel, and one hand on my thigh
And I know it sounds crazy, but babe I am too
I just can't turn my back to you
I just can't turn my back to you
