I'm pulling up stakes in the wake of the look you gave me
I'm packing my things on my way to the wrong side of town
We're risking one kiss and the words that could tangle heart strings
We trembled at the sound
Caught by the moon on your face in my gravel driveway
Transfixed by your eyes, they eclipse every ounce of light
Till the world disappeared and we swore we could see the future
We trembled at the sight
Oh, it's my favorite face
The safest place
For my heart, for my heart
We're melting down metals and stones like we were the first ones
We're putting up neon lights above our heads
I whisper your name like a mantra that just might save me
If I needed being saved
And my friend said, this only happens once in a lifetime
And by god, he could be right
'Cause what was dead suddenly sent out a lifeline
And you came back to me tonight
Oh, it's my favorite face
The safest place
For my heart, for my heart
We fell in love, then we broke our hearts
Then we fell in love again
But there's nothing so sweet as a melody with an unexpected turn
At the end
Oh, it's my favorite face
The safest place
For my heart, for my heart
