[ verse 1 ]
D
the moon is high
D
like your friends were the night that we first met
D A Bm
went home and tried to stalk you on the internet
A
now i’ve read all of the books beside your bed

D
the wine is cold
D
like the shoulder that i gave you in the street
D A Bm
cat and mouse for a month or two or three
A
now i wake up in the night and watch you breathe

[ pre – chorus 1 ]
D
( ay! ) kiss me once ’cause you know i had a long night

( oh! ) kiss me twice ’cause it’s gonna be alright

( uh! ) three times ’cause i’ve waited my whole life

in paper rings , in picture frames , in dirty dreams

[ verse 2 ]
D
in the winter in the icy outdoor pool
A Bm
when you jumped in first , i went in too
A
i’m with you even if it makes me blue

D
which takes me back
to the color that we painted your brother’s wall
A Bm
honey , without all the exes , fights and flaws
A
we wouldn’t be standing here so proud , so
