Fires of Pompeii (We Should Walk Away)
Caught you looking at me, from across that room
Like the Fires of Pompeii, the air began to burn
Your eyes met mine, they're the brightest blue
So crystalline, then the next thing I knew
There's a million reasons this should work
Unless we're buried in ashes
You're not him and I can't replace her
There's a likelihood we'll both get hurt
There's a likelihood we'll both get burned
We should walk away
We should walk away
We were dancing in circles while the band played on
Like two constellations trying to outrun the sun
When we finally met and it all fell away
Like time stood still, I wanted to stay
There's a million reasons this should work
Unless we're buried in ashes
You're not him and I can't replace her
There's a likelihood we'll both get hurt
There's a likelihood we'll both get burned
We should walk away
We should walk away
Between shots of tequila and the stories you told
We're flirting with disaster if one of us should fold
It's 2am, time to go home
Maybe it's for the best if we pretend that we never met?
There's a million reasons this should work
Unless we're buried in ashes
You're not him and I can't replace her
There's a likelihood we'll both get hurt
There's a likelihood we'll both get burned
We should walk away
We should walk away
Should we should walk away?
Like the Fires of Pompeii, the air began to burn
Your eyes met mine, they're the brightest blue
So crystalline, then the next thing I knew
There's a million reasons this should work
Unless we're buried in ashes
You're not him and I can't replace her
There's a likelihood we'll both get hurt
There's a likelihood we'll both get burned
We should walk away
We should walk away
We were dancing in circles while the band played on
Like two constellations trying to outrun the sun
When we finally met and it all fell away
Like time stood still, I wanted to stay
There's a million reasons this should work
Unless we're buried in ashes
You're not him and I can't replace her
There's a likelihood we'll both get hurt
There's a likelihood we'll both get burned
We should walk away
We should walk away
Between shots of tequila and the stories you told
We're flirting with disaster if one of us should fold
It's 2am, time to go home
Maybe it's for the best if we pretend that we never met?
There's a million reasons this should work
Unless we're buried in ashes
You're not him and I can't replace her
There's a likelihood we'll both get hurt
There's a likelihood we'll both get burned
We should walk away
We should walk away
Should we should walk away?
