Let down. This one won’t happen
Night fell. Left us crashin’
Day breaks. There’s no room for mistakes
Act fast. Hide your feelings
Truth played its part in stealing
No need. I want everything else

You took the words right off my tongue
Learned how to say them while we’re young
And while the world is turnin’
Take time off while we’re learnin’
I’m here to say the least
Don’t get caught up in the thick of it, baby
Caught up in the thick of it, baby

Close call. The night’s unfolding
Your word is all I’m holding
We’re here. No chance for a reprieve
Wrong time to win me over
I’m in no shape to cover
Don’t let my heart go straight to your head

You took the words right off my tongue
Learned how to say them while we’re young
And while the world is turnin’
Take time off while we’re learnin’
I’m here to say the least
Don’t get caught up in the thick of it, baby
Caught up in the thick of it, baby

No bets. You want who you shouldn’t get
Your eyes are a spinning set that take their time to break
Your sight is set on this lonely night
The loneliest girl in black and white, reads black or white
You’re in. Not only because you’re him
The loneliest boy I’ve seen, boy I’ve seen

You took the words right off my little tongue
Learned how to say them while we’re young
And while the world is turnin’
Take time off while we’re learnin’
I’m here to say the least
Don’t get caught up in the thick of it, baby
Caught up in the thick of it, baby

And while the world is turnin’
Take time off while we’re learnin’
I’m here to say the least
Don’t get caught up in the thick of it, baby
Caught up in the thick of it, baby
