lyrics

Verse 1:
I put a letter in a bottle and threw it out to the sea
Let my lighthouse shine so bright that everybody could see
Spotlight like the Bat signal to bring you to me
And if that doesn’t reach you, I hope I do when I sing, I mean…
I lit a flare and threw it into the air
Feel like we lost our spark and now I’m losin’ it here
Prepare…send an S.O.S. and a mayday cry
And you say you’re gettin’ closer so I try to wave high
Maybe if I prayed you would even stay by then we could take flight

Hook:
And still you seem so far away
even though you’re sittin’ next to me
And so it’s gettin’ harder to stay
‘cause I’ll just let you get the best of me

And that’s the worst thing that I could do
Think I must have missed my shot, thought it was a sure thing with you
Hey, we talkin’ every night, I even see you everyday
But no matter where we are, still you seem so far away

Verse 2:
Light it up and leave smoke signals in the sky for you
to find your way back to me, I’m gettin’ high for you
I’ll draw the map to my soul but you have to deliver
Turn every traffic light green to get you back to me quicker, ayy
How should I feel, Lord? Should I put up a billboard?
Knowin’ this here’s the type of love that you would kill for
She’s poppin’ pills more, she’s gotta feel floored
Wanna sweep her off of her feet, but this is the only way that I will feel sure

(To Hook)

Verse 3:
Maybe you didn’t get my messages
I’m much too young to even have to stress this shit
Is this the best it gets? If so, I’ll block your number
go and find another girl and I might even (f*ck her)
on the first night…I’m sorry, I just had the worst night
If you could come back to me, we’ll take the first flight
out of here…’cause I’m sick of the tears
I wrapped my arms around her while she whispered in my ear
(baby I’m here)…

(To Hook)
