Lyrics
She said let's go,
Right now, Let’s get out
And get on the road
If I don't get out of the Big Town
I think I’ll explode,
Let's get lost in a road trip
Press play and crank up the sound
As we drove past the buildings
I felt her soul lift off the ground.
She just danced in the ocean,
A beautiful dream
That couldn't get closer to perfect.
And Souls in slow motion
But Torn at the seams
Every skipped heartbeat was worth it
Yeah, you’re worth it.
Took my hand in the moonlight,
Pulled us both in the the surf,
At that moment I wondered
If she ever really knew what she was worth
She just danced in the ocean,
A beautiful dream
That couldn't get closer to perfect
2 Souls in slow motion
And Torn at the seams
Every skipped heartbeat was worth it
Yeah you’re worth it.
Oh you’re worth it.
Stars in her eyes and the salt
On her skin,
She opened the door
Now she won’t let me in
Hearts intertwined
Now ripped out Just to bleed
She said “you can’t love me”
I don’t know what that means.
I’m drowning in her ocean
Such a terrible dream
The Closest that I’ve been perfect
2 Souls in stop-motion
Torn apart at the seams,
Every missed heartbeat was worth it.
Yeah, your worth it.
Goddamn you’re worth it
She was worth it.
