Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's always when the street lights are blinking red
It's only when you're the only thing in my head
I don't know how you know, but you know when I'm too far gone
It's always right when I wanna do somethin' wrong
[Verse 2]
I hate when you call, but I answer again
You don't give a damn that it's 2 a.m.
'Tween the baby I need you, I wanna be closer
The truth in the morning, the moment it's over
It's the moonlight and the rattle of you knockin' on the door
I wind up breakin' out a bottle, then it's cotton on the floor
It's the drinking, it's the touching, it's the lyin', it's the sting
It kills me when you leave, I hate how it starts, I hate how it ends
But I love everything, everything in between
[Verse 3]
I'm always just a place where you can crash
All you leave is your lipstick on a glass
Yeah, the middle of the night is never enough
But it's enough to keep me hangin' on
So I play along as long as you let me
[Verse 4]
I hate when you call, but I answer again
You don't give a damn that it's 2 a.m.
'Tween the baby I need you, I wanna be closer
The truth in the morning, the moment it's over
It's the moonlight and the rattle of you knocking on the door
I wind up breakin' out a bottle, then it's cotton on the floor
It's the drinking, it's the touching, it's the lyin', it's the sting
It kills me when you leave, I hate how it starts, I hate how it ends
But I love everything, everything in between
[Verse 5]
Yeah, it's the moonlight and the rattle of you knockin' on the door
I wind up breakin' out a bottle, then it's cotton on the floor
It's the drinking, it's the touching, it's the lyin', it's the sting
It kills me when you leave, I hate how it starts, I hate how it ends
But I love everything, everything in between
