"After You" lyrics

"After You"

Disarmed, the sun was quick to setting
The bar, I said you shouldn't get in
The car, but where we're staying isn't
Too far from here

You jumped into the community pool in nothing but your underwear
Could've sunk into your moonlight skin when I saw you coming up for air
Had a gunshy gut 'bout hopping that fence, so I watched from the opposite side
Was waiting all night

Hands under my T-shirt, smile in the dark
Fall into the fever, let you leave a mark
Caught me in your headlights, I forgot to move
Who could come after you?
How I feel you with me when I'm by myself
How you overshadow everybody else
Who could devastate me in the way you do?
Who could come after you?

A shrine I built for you inside of
My mind, the measure by which now I
Define how it should hit me
It should hit me like a truck

You jumped into all the space in my room, though I didn't have much to spare
Try to keep composed, but I'm on my toes 'cause you met me unprepared
Too far gone, now you're all I want, and I watch from the opposite side
My favourite place to hide

Hands under my T-shirt, smile in the dark
Fall into the fever, let you leave a mark
Caught me in your headlights, I forgot to move
Who could come after you?
How I feel you with me when I'm by myself
How you overshadow everybody else
Who could devastate me in the way you do?
Who could come after you?

After you
After you
Who could ever take me everywhere you do?
Who could come after you?
