[Intro] Ooh, ah-ooh, ooh, ah-ooh Ooh, ah-ooh, ooh, ah-ooh Ooh, ah-ooh, ooh, ah-ooh Ooh, ah-ooh, ooh, ah-ooh [Verse 1] Wake me up at midnight You charge me like a payphone, every time we talk Meet me in the pink light Right off I-75 Right before the fall [Pre-Chorus] You hop inside my car with a tear Say, "there's nothing like the fear of losing truth" [Chorus] I just wanna try to protect you Like your skin protects your blood I just wanna keep you safe The way the forest keeps her young And if I ever let you go Then my whole kingdom's done I hold to your heart like it's palladium I hold to your heart like it's palladium [Verse 2] Evergreen and asphalt Dancing on the billboards First onеs on the scene And whеn I call you, "Baby" You smoke up like a chimney You're too afraid I'll leave [Pre-Chorus] Careful with the moon in your eyes Say, "there's nothing like the fear of losing time" [Chorus] I just wanna try to protect you Like your skin protects your blood I just wanna keep you safe The way the forest keeps her young And if I ever let you go Then my whole kingdom's done I hold to your heart like it's palladium I hold to your heart like it's palladium [Bridge] Tell me what you need, baby love (Woo) Tell me what you need, baby love Let me come on over with your touch I'll make the sky our arena I'll be Orion, your Athena Tell me what you want, baby love Let it pour out with a touch I'm only good when I protect you You try to fall but I won't let you [Chorus] I just wanna try to protect you Like your skin protects your blood I just wanna keep you safe The way the forest keeps her young And if I ever let you go Then my whole kingdom's done I hold to your heart like it's palladium I hold to your heart like it's palladium
