All of these highs and all of these lows
Don't keep me company
I've been breathing you in and drinking you down
You're the only remedy
Say you're gonna hold my head up
Say you're gonna break my fall
Say you're gonna stay forever
Baby, this is all I want
'Cause all my bones are begging me to beg for you
Begging me to beg for your love
Oh, my lungs are begging me to beg for you
Begging me to beg for your love
Swear I'm gonna hold your head up
Swear I'm gonna break your fall
Swear we're gonna last forever
Baby, this is all I want
'Cause all my bones are begging me to beg for you
Begging me to beg for your love
Losing my mind, dreaming I'll find
Another kind of love
But this blood in my veins and the thought of your taste
No, I can't give it up
So look at my face
I'm not running away
'Cause all my bones are begging me to beg for you
Begging me to beg for your love
Swear I'm gonna hold your head up
Swear I'm gonna break your fall
Swear we're gonna last forever
Baby, this is all I want
'Cause all my bones are begging me to beg for you
Begging me to beg for your love
Say you're gonna hold my head up
Say you're gonna break my fall
Say you're gonna stay forever
Baby, this is all I want
Swear I'm gonna hold your head up
Swear I'm gonna break your fall
Swear we're gonna last forever
Baby, this is all I want
'Cause all my bones are begging me to beg for you
Begging me to beg for your love
Oh, my lungs are begging me to beg for you
Begging me to beg for your love
