Slow Motion
Wake from a dream
For a second, I forget the past
But the truth always comes rushing back
Every promise that you said to me
I could tell from the start
You were going down in history
In slow motion, I'm slipping back in to night
It feels like I'm stuck playing a game I can't win this time
I just want to call you up
And say that I'm not giving up
If you're lying in someone else's arms
Feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders
Just pick up the phone, now
Just pick up the phone, now
But we can go back
You used to tell me true love never lasts
We shine like diamonds in the broken glass
Words are forever tripping off our lips
Did you know in your heart
It was always gonna come to this?
In slow motion, I'm slipping back in to night
It feels like I'm stuck playing a game I can't win this time
(And all that I want)
I just want to call you up
And say that I'm not giving up
If you're lying in someone else's arms
Feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders
Just pick up the phone, now
Just pick up the phone, now
(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Ooh
(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Ooh
In slow motion, I'm slipping back in to night
(And all that I want)
I just want to call you up
To say that I'm not giving up
If you're lying in someone else's arms
I'll keep you safe from harm
You'll never have to be alone again
And all I want is
I just want to call you up
(Just pick up the phone, now)
And say I'm never giving up
(Just pick up the phone, now)
If you're lying in someone else's arms
Feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders
(Just pick up the phone, now)
Pick up the phone, now
For a second, I forget the past
But the truth always comes rushing back
Every promise that you said to me
I could tell from the start
You were going down in history
In slow motion, I'm slipping back in to night
It feels like I'm stuck playing a game I can't win this time
I just want to call you up
And say that I'm not giving up
If you're lying in someone else's arms
Feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders
Just pick up the phone, now
Just pick up the phone, now
But we can go back
You used to tell me true love never lasts
We shine like diamonds in the broken glass
Words are forever tripping off our lips
Did you know in your heart
It was always gonna come to this?
In slow motion, I'm slipping back in to night
It feels like I'm stuck playing a game I can't win this time
(And all that I want)
I just want to call you up
And say that I'm not giving up
If you're lying in someone else's arms
Feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders
Just pick up the phone, now
Just pick up the phone, now
(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Ooh
(Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh)
Ooh
In slow motion, I'm slipping back in to night
(And all that I want)
I just want to call you up
To say that I'm not giving up
If you're lying in someone else's arms
I'll keep you safe from harm
You'll never have to be alone again
And all I want is
I just want to call you up
(Just pick up the phone, now)
And say I'm never giving up
(Just pick up the phone, now)
If you're lying in someone else's arms
Feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders
(Just pick up the phone, now)
Pick up the phone, now
