Losing Streak
Reckless Serenade Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Caught in gaze, I just can’t look away
The only thing that matters is that we’re not afraid
Take a breath, take my hand and we’ll see where we landed
Hiding in your back seat where they caught us red-handed
All this anticipation has got me sh sh shaking
(Are you shaking babe?)

Counting all the reasons why I still can’t fall asleep tonight
You are up there with my college debt
I swear you make me so crazy
The girl at every show
She sings the words but she don’t know

Caught in gaze, I just can’t look away
The only thing that matters is that we’re not afraid
Take a breath, take my hand and we’ll see where we landed
Hiding in your back seat where they caught us red-handed
All this anticipation has got me sh sh shaking
(Are you shaking?)

Let’s find time to lose ourselves in lies we’ve told and truths we’ve held
Let’s turn on all the lights and take a good hard look
At what we’re hiding
While the temperature was rising
And we prayed that this meant something

Caught in gaze, I just can’t look away
The only thing that matters is that we’re not afraid

Take a breath, take my hand and we’ll see where we landed
Hiding in your back seat where they caught us red-handed
All this anticipation has got me sh sh shaking (are you shaking?)

And I guess I never learned how to play this game the right way
Just let me stumble through these words I prepared in my head don’t tell me that I’m too late

And all this anticipation’s got me shaking




All this anticipation’s got me shaking
Are you shaking?
