I won't give it back to you

I won't give that part again
Fmaj7 G Am
I won't love another you
 
Pre-Chorus
Fmaj7 G Am
'Cause honey that hourglass got me thinking
G
You ain't no friend of mine

We were moving so fast and you got me thinking

Why not keep chasing time?

I said, "Honey, I wanna find somewhere sacred,
G
Away from your flashing lights.
Fmaj7 G
Honey, I was yours in the dark of the night."

With every move I make into your frame

Come on, take anything you like

Come on, take anything you like
Fmaj7 G
Come on, take anything you like

You ain’t no friend of mine

Away from your flashing lights

Honey, I was yours in the dark of the night

Get comfortable, you're a natural

Love comes at a cost
 
But nothing’s ever lost

But this too, my love, shall pass

The dark was just never just for us
