  • Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,

    Take my hand maybe we should run away
    Maybe we should disappear leave everything behind
    Like the useless things, boxes labeled memories
    The sudden health emergencies

    Yeah we could leave those things behind
    Show me, show me arms that reach for all we can be
    Through understanding, I tried forgiveness,
    I faced the past, it's what I witnessed

    Why do I only feel the chills when I'm with you?
    I only hear your words that you say are true
    But you keep thinking it over, thinking it over,
    You can catch me if you wanted to, oh

    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,

    Now, why you gotta say goodbye
    When you know you're gonna come with me
    No, can't afford to leave and stay
    You're gonna have to just build one way

    So tell me, tell me all the things you told me we could be
    Through understanding, I tried forgiveness,
    I faced the facts, it's what I witnessed
    Why do I only feel the chills when I'm with you

    I only hear your words that you say are true
    But you keep thinking it over, thinking it over,
    You can catch me if you wanted to
    I only feel the chills when I'm with you

    I feel like I'm so high, I'm feeling so high
    C-catch me, c-c-catch me

    Why does a heart always have to break
    (When you're trying way too hard), have to break
    (Yes she'll see right though you), have to break
    Oh communication, yeah conversation,

    It breaks down
    Now there will be nothing to talk about,
    (Absolutely nothing, just blah blah blah)

    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh,

    Why do I only feel the chills when I'm with you
    I only hear your words that you say are true
    But you keep thinking it over, thinking it over,
    You can catch me if you wanted to

    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh
    Whoa-ah-oh ah-ah-oh
    Can catch me, c-c-catch me, oh Writer/s: JUSTIN FURSTENFELD, TIMOTHY PALMER
