letting on and letting go
cause you better know now
that this is real
as of now there's no turning back
we're getting pretty good at taking chances
there's no one I’d rather walk the rope with
you never thought it'd go this far
I never thought I’d be so lost in you
but it’s here now so let’s just make it last
(make it last)
cause I’ve never been so far around
we turn everything upside down
and that’s exactly how we like it
they say love makes its own music
but you and me write symphonies
and we're our own worst enemies
we fake it so hard sometimes we fool ourselves
but we go deep
(so much deeper than before)
and have seen each other undone
I’ve missed others, but I ache for you
let them tell us we're not feeling this
they're jealous cause we're not pretending
and every day we save each other
break my heart and pick up the pieces
hanging on is what we do best
when we feel like letting go
and we'll conquer the world, you and me
but I wouldn’t take back one day
cause at this point there's no turning back
we're getting rather good at taking chances
there's no one I’d rather walk the rope with
giving in and giving up
the best I’ve done is give my heart to you
