Wake me up at midnight

You charge me like a payphone every time we talk

Meet me in the pink light

Right off I- 75

Right before the fall

You hop inside my car with a tear

Say " there's nothing like the fear of losing truth"

I just wanna try to protect you

Like your skin protects your blood

I just wanna keep you safe

The way the forest keeps her young

And if I ever let you go

Then my whole kingdom's done

I hold to your heart like it's palladium

I hold to your heart like it's palladium

Evergreen and asphalt

Dancing on the billboards

First ones on the scene

And when I call you " Baby"

You smoke up like a chimney

You're too afraid I'll leave

Careful with the moon in your eyes

Say " there's nothing like the fear of losing time"

I just wanna try to protect you

Like your skin protects your blood

I just wanna keep you safe

The way the forest keeps her young

And if I ever let you go

Then my whole kingdom's done

I hold to your heart like it's palladium

I hold to your heart like it's palladium

Tell me what you need baby love

Woo

Tell me what you need baby love

Let me come on over with your touch

I'll make the sky our arena

I'll be Orion your Athena

Tell me what you want baby love

Let it pour out with a touch

I'm only good when I protect you

You try to fall but I won't let you

I just wanna try to protect you

Like your skin protects your blood

I just wanna keep you safe

The way the forest keeps her young

And if I ever let you go

Then my whole kingdom's done

I hold to your heart like it's palladium

I hold to your heart like it's palladium

Tell me what you need baby love
