Perfect Storm
Cardiknox Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just tell me that you want me
Yeah, say it to my face
Cause I remember when we let our clothes hit the floor
And we laid in bed with hours to waste

The silver sun is fading
Tell me we still have a chance
There's a light on the horizon
So I'm running for ya
You see me coming for ya
Cause the hot, hot heat won't stop

We got the push and the pull
But I can't let you go
You got me tongue tied and twisted
Every time you say no
You got me falling, falling
So gimme what I'm waiting for
We come together like a perfect storm

Won't you come a little closer?
I'll let you run right through my veins

The neon lights are burning
Maybe we still have a chance
Yeah, the tides are always changing
So I'm running for ya
You see me coming for ya
Cause the hot, hot heat won't stop

We got the push and the pull
But I can't let you go
You got me tongue tied and twisted
Every time you say no
You got me falling, falling
So gimme what I'm waiting for
We come together like a perfect storm

Clouds come rolling in the darkness
You're my dirty, sweet weakness
Feel the thunder and the lightning
Underneath the diamonds
We keep coming back for more
We keep coming back for more
We keep coming back for more

We got the push and the pull
But I can't let you go
You got me tongue tied and twisted
Every time you say no
You got me falling, falling
So gimme what I'm waiting for
We come together like a perfect storm




We come together, we come together
We come together like a perfect storm
