"Jackpot" lyrics

"Jackpot"

Red light, break it if you want it
I'm a good time, I'll take you to the summit
If you just try, I promise that you'll love it
It's a thin line but everybody does it
And that first night I saw you in the city
By the church yard, knew that this would kill me

If it's a long game then I know how to play it
That's my first name, I like the way you say it
It was just us in every crowded living room
My lost love, you know I almost kissed you on the front step
Was worried of you waking up with regret
So I just sat beside you, still

And if the sun comes up
And if it's all we've got
Would you say it's still enough?
Would you say we hit the jackpot?

I get home, movie credits rolling so I let go
And tell myself to grow up, leave it alone
You don't get what you want just 'cause you want it
And you know how to be a better friend
You're lucky if you ever catch a comet
But let it go and learn to pretend

And if the sun comes up
And if it's all we've got
Would you say it's still enough?
Would you say we hit the jackpot?
Yeah if the sun comes up
And if it's all we've got
Would you say it's still enough?
Would you say we hit the jackpot
You and me?

There's no time coming up now
So let it go
If you got what you wanted
Just dream it slow
There's no time coming up now (And if the sun comes up)
So let it go (And if it's all we've got)
If you got what you wanted (Would you say it's still enough?)
Just dream it slow (Would you say we hit the jackpot?)
There's no time coming up now (And if the sun comes up)
So let it go (And if it's all we've got)
If you got what you wanted (Would you say it's still enough?)
Just dream it slow (Would you say we hit the jackpot)
(You and me?)
