Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
--- 2x
We were just kids
We were the rulers
We had the world, but no we never had enough
Your head on my chest,
I watched you sleeping,
Stayed awake and wondered what youre dreaming of.
Where did you go?
Gave you my heart,
Wrote you a note, you tore it apart
Take your time
Wait it out
Til this is over
Tell me how long it takes,
To fill an empty heart,
To let it wash away and take it back, take it back.
Back to the way we burned
Like we were falling stars.
Tell me how long it takes to
Take it back; take it back, back to the start.
I miss your touch,
I miss the late nights.
I wish you never would have gotten on that plane.
Did you get scared
Or did I love you too much?
I guess thats why the call it a runway.
Where did you go?
I gave you my heart.
Im by myself and were apart.
Take your time,
Wait it out,
Til this is over.
Tell me how long it takes,
To fill an empty heart,
To let it wash away and take it back, take it back.
Back to the way we burned
Like we were falling stars.
Tell me how long it takes to
Take it back; take it back, back to the start.
Wherever you go,
Whatever you chase,
No one could ever take your place.
I wont let you go,
Dont be the one that got away.
Tell me how long it takes,
To fill an empty heart,
To let it wash away and take it back, take it back.
Back to the way we burned
Like we were falling stars.
Tell me how long it takes to
Take it back; take it back, back to the start.
