Lyrics[]
I don't wanna buy what they're sellin' these days
Sayin' feelin' and fallin' is all a mistake
No, no
And why does everybody look at young hearts fillin' up
Like it's just a matter of time before they break?
No, no
They started sayin', "When you can't hide, run"
"When you can't run, hide"
Started thinkin' love's a loaded gun
Nobody wants to fight
And when did we all stop thinkin' that the world
Stopped spinnin' in a kiss goodnight?
And when did a heartbeat beatin' too fast
Stop meaning it was worth the while?
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide
Traded out our eyes to light a screen
Traded our holdin' hands to holdin' back everything
No, no
No, no, oh
And words got shorter and quiet got longer
And all the sudden, love started lookin' like a memory
No, no, no
They started sayin', "If you can't hide, run"
"If you can't run, hide"
Started thinkin' love's a loaded gun
Nobody wants to fight
And when did we all stop thinkin' that the world
Stopped spinnin' in a kiss goodnight?
And when did a heartbeat beatin' too fast
Stop meaning it was worth the while?
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide, no
Mmm, no
No, no, no
They started sayin', "When you can't hide, run"
"When you can't run, hide"
But love don't gotta be a loaded gun
Or a losin' fight
And when did we all stop thinkin' that the world
Stopped spinnin' in a kiss goodnight?
And when did a heartbeat beatin' too fast
Stop meaning it was worth the while?
But I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
I wanna, I wanna be loved
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide
And I don't wanna run, I don't wanna hide
