How many times
How many times
How many times
How many times
How many times
How many times
Do I need to tell you?

Once more, but this time with feeling
Off grid, words lose their meaning
These nights have lost a certain feeling
Through flames we turn to gold
Sometimes, it feels like we're dreaming
Kiss me hard, make me feel it
Tonight, let's awaken old feelings
Through flames we turn to gold

See, my guy's one of a kind
And he likes to go all night
But lately
I've been thinking like there's something on his mind
Like our puzzle's not connecting and
Maybe it's our time
It's giving me anxiety
Just when we think we've cracked it
God shows her true plan
Have I been so inconsiderate, only wrapped up in myself?
Have I been so absent-minded not to feel the hours weep?
Every day, every week
Do you remember how we hit it when we were in our prime?
Riding bikes to the Thames
and doing it twice a night
We'll never have those days again, will we babe?
See, I'm not trying to start with you
so baby just be kind
Do you really want to punish me for some unspoken crime?
Do you really want to choke the love
that used to rule our lives?
Let's not start the day like this

Once more, but this time with feeling
Off grid, words lose their meaning
These nights have lost a certain feeling
('Cause) through flames we turn to gold
Sometimes, it feels like we're dreaming
Kiss me hard, make me feel it
Tonight, let's awaken old feelings (oh)
Through flames we turn to gold

So please don't take that tone with me
just put a record on
No, I don't fuck with The Smiths
but to The Cure I can get down
We could put on Radio 4 and listen to them talk
Like grown-ups talk
For all the times I was unkind
and pushed you till you snapped
For all the times I said the things
I know I can't get back
For all the times I told you lies
and brought tears to your eyes
I'm so sorry I made you cry

Watching First Dates on the sofa
Feet still touch your hand in mine
We watch as romance starts to flicker
Never tire of the sparks
Feel the canyon drift between us
As silence takes us to the night
Still hoping that you'll save me
Throw those arms around me
Squeeze me till my cracks heal
Fuse the broken parts of me

I'm sorry if I'm doing it wrong
I'm sorry if I'm not the one
For all of the times that I tried
but I failed to put you first
I'm sorry if I'm doing it wrong
I'm sorry if I'm not the one
For all of the times that I acted a fool
and put you on the back burner
Back burner
Back burner
Back burner
Back burner
(Back burner)
(oh)
