  • First smile on my heart left the usual mark
    Yeah you’re the bar that everybody has to move
    And you know it cause you like to call me up
    Now when I’m powerless to turn away from you

    I’ve never been in love before and so you keep your score
    Though I was stronger than this, should hold back longer than this
    It's like we say it's over and it brings us closer
    Like the odds are all fixed, like we are fated to stick

    Sometimes I wonder why we fight it for
    If this is the right thing to do, to do, to do
    When we both feel it, it’s magnetic
    Can’t we let it pull me back to you

    Logic and the soul don’t work as one, I know
    And there is nothing smart about me and you
    But say I do break free, say you'd let me be
    Is there even someone better after you?

    And like a forest to a fire, a fuse to a lighter
    Like we want to explode, like we get high on the smoke
    They say we should know better, we aren’t good together
    But we failed to resist, guess we’re not stronger than this

    Sometimes I wonder why we fight it for
    If this is the right thing to do, to do, to do
    When we both feel it, it’s magnetic
    Can’t we let it pull me back to you

    [Breakdown]

    Sometimes I wonder why we fight it for
    If this is the right thing to do, to do, to do
    When we both feel it, it’s magnetic
    Can’t we let it pull me back to you, to you, to you
    Sometimes I wonder why we fight it for
    If this is the right thing to do, to do, to do
    When we both feel it, it’s magnetic
    Can’t we let it pull me back to you
