"The Wire" lyrics

"The Wire"

Been up all night, wondering if you are
Up all night, I'm wondering if I call
Honey, would you hesitate? Tell yourself it's too late?
Or would we talk all night and build it back from bones
'Til morning light? 'Cause I'm scared if we don't
Honey, if I hesitate, I'd be a second too late
Yeah, I been up all night

Now we're gettin' down to the wire
Gettin' to the heart of the matter
If we're just a car crash from another disaster
Then why don't you stay through the morning after, lover?
I'm always gonna think of New York
Even if we're not together
If you wanna know the truth, when the nights are lonely
I think about you, you're my one and only, lover
Any less, I'll be a liar
Now we're gettin' down to the wire

Screw my pride 'cause I need you to know
Was out of my mind to ever let you go
I remember how your lips tasted
The thought, it's got my heart racing
But memories ain't gonna make me whole, no

Now we're gettin' down to the wire
Gettin' to the heart of the matter
If we're just a car crash from another disaster
Then why don't you stay through the morning after, lover?
I'm always gonna think of New York
Even if we're not together
If you wanna know the truth, when the nights are lonely
I think about you, you're my one and only, lover
Any less, I'll be a liar
Now we're gettin' down to the wire

Now we're gettin' down to the wire
Gettin' to the heart of the matter
If we're just a car crash from another disaster
Then why don't you stay through the morning after, lover?
I'm always gonna think of New York
Even if we're not together
If you wanna know the truth, when the nights are lonely
I think about you, you're my one and only, lover
Any less, I'll be a liar
Now we're gettin' down to the wire
