You got me sipping on something
I can't compare to nothing
I've ever known, I'm hoping
That after this fever I'll survive
I know I'm acting a bit crazy
Strung out, a little bit hazy
Hand over heart, I'm praying
That I'm gonna make it out alive

The bed's getting cold and you're not 
here
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I 
should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants

You got me scattered in pieces
Shining like stars and screaming
Lightening me up like Venus
But then you disappear and make me 
wait
And every second's like torture
Heroin drip, no more so
Finding a way to let go
Baby baby no I can't escape

The bed's getting cold and you're not 
here
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I 
should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants (3x)

This is a modern fairy-tale
No happy endings
No wind in our sails
But I can't imagine a life without
Breathless moments
Breaking me down
Down, down, down

The bed's getting cold and you're not 
here
The future that we hold is so unclear
But I'm not alive until you call
And I'll bet the odds against it all
Save your advice 'cause I won't hear
You might be right but I don't care
There's a million reasons why I 
should give you up
But the heart wants what it wants
The heart wants what it wants (3x)

The heart wants what it wants, baby
It wants what it wants, baby
It wants what it wants (2x)
