Chandelier Lyrics

Catch my breath and hold it for me

I'm wasting my time

Trying to make up my mind

I'm sitting here as the chandelier

Is whispering in my ear

Saying can I get a cigarette

I know you'll never be mine

But can you come around tonight

And sing me a lullaby

Just take my heart and break it

Can you come around tonight

I might be the enemy

But nothing quite hits like you

Take this pen and write for me

Oh write me a song

And I'll try to forget it

I was standing there as the man upstairs

Comes crashing through the ceiling

Saying "where's my fucking cigarette"

With fire in his eyes

But can you come around tonight

And sing me a lullaby

Just take my heart and break it

Can you come around tonight

I might be the enemy

But nothing quite hits like you

And as all my patience

Starts to dry

And my feet leave skids across the sand

Then I'll know

That you've won

And I'll run

Back to where I came from
