"Painfully Happy" lyrics

"Painfully Happy"

From seven to phoenix
As naked as angels without wings
We hung our heads in the clouds
Our feet never touched the ground
Higher than nine, hotter than blue
Somewhere near a perfect ten
A Miami street uncovering you
You watched me come undone...

Falling through the eye of the needle, you and I
Landing on the point of no return
We were painfully happy
On an unmade bed of thorns
Knowing it had to be love
Because you touched me
Touched you where it hurt...
Where it hurt...

With no regard for safety
We didn't think to care
Nothing else seemed to matter
As we fell, flying on erotic air
Dangerously close, we lost ourselves
When we found each other lacking
Afraid of heights, parachutes wide
I watched you come undone

Falling through the eye of the needle, you and I
Landing on the point of no return
We were painfully happy
On an unmade bed of thorns
Knowing it had to be love
Because you touched me
You touched me were it hurt

Painfully happy
We were painfully happy
We were painfully happy
Painfully happy, you and I
We were so painfully happy
We were so painfully happy
You and I you and I
You touched me where it hurt
Where it hurt, where it hurt, where it hurt

Painfully happy
Painfully happy
You left me...
