You Swore Your Love Would Burn by This Wild Life Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Just shoot me straight like whiskey, tell me you don't miss me
Let me down with dignity go easy, Darling
Cause I've been holding hope but there's nothing left to hold
So without you I'll just float
[Chorus]
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
You swore your love would burn
[Verse 2]
You dyed your hair a new shade to color in your blank page
You still look the same, beautiful but boring
What's life like with the new flame? Bet it don't hit quite the same
So much for needing space
[Chorus]
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
You swore your love would burn
[Bridge]
There's nothing here, nothing left
No love that's left to give
Your bittersweet medicine might help you to forget
You loved me in your bed, then you left me unmended
You broke into my heart then you kept it
There's nothing here, nothing left
No love that's left to give
Your bittersweet medicine might help you to forget
You loved me in your bed, then you left me unmended
You broke into my heart then you kept it
[Outro Chorus]
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
You swore your love would burn
You swore your love would burn
You swore your love would burn
Just shoot me straight like whiskey, tell me you don't miss me
Let me down with dignity go easy, Darling
Cause I've been holding hope but there's nothing left to hold
So without you I'll just float
[Chorus]
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
You swore your love would burn
[Verse 2]
You dyed your hair a new shade to color in your blank page
You still look the same, beautiful but boring
What's life like with the new flame? Bet it don't hit quite the same
So much for needing space
[Chorus]
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
You swore your love would burn
[Bridge]
There's nothing here, nothing left
No love that's left to give
Your bittersweet medicine might help you to forget
You loved me in your bed, then you left me unmended
You broke into my heart then you kept it
There's nothing here, nothing left
No love that's left to give
Your bittersweet medicine might help you to forget
You loved me in your bed, then you left me unmended
You broke into my heart then you kept it
[Outro Chorus]
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
If it was up to me, you'd fall into pieces
Dusted completely, you'd be nothing but a bad dream
Your nights would be sleepless, just nightmares and cold sweats
Alone on your mattress where you swore you loved me more
You swore your love would burn
You swore your love would burn
You swore your love would burn
