Vampire

Intro

(Ooh)

I should've known better

(Ooh)

Verse 1

You called me when the bar shut down

Said you were driving past my house

Told myself I wouldn't let you in

Then heard your footsteps on the stairs again

You kissed me like you missed me

Like the last few weeks were all a lie

I almost asked you where we left it

But you were looking in my eyes

Pre-Chorus

And I hate how little it takes

For me to forget what you did

One hand resting on my waist

And I'm right back in it

Chorus

You love me like a vampire

You come around when the whole world's gone

Put your lips on mine like nothing's wrong

Then leave before the morning comes

You love me like a vampire

I let you in, I let you stay

You take the part of me I can't replace

And I still want you anyway

Verse 2

Your side of the bed goes cold

Before I've even fallen asleep

You never say that you love me

But you know what those words mean to me

I tell my friends that it's over

I swear that this time I mean it

Then you call me just past midnight

And somehow I'm back where we started

Pre-Chorus

And I know how this is gonna end

I know what you'll say when you leave

But when you pull me close again

I forget what I promised me

Chorus

You love me like a Vampire

You only want me when the night gets long

You hold me close, then you're already gone

And I'm the one who gets it wrong

You love me like a vampire

I leave the light on anyway

Like you might wake up and decide to stay

God, I hate that I still want you that way

Bridge

Maybe you don't mean to hurt me

Maybe that's the worst part of it all

You don't have to make me promises

I just keep hearing them when you call

And if you came here tomorrow

I'd probably tell you not to leave

I wish that wanting you was something

I could just talk myself out of feeling

Final Chorus

You love me like a vampire

You come around when I'm almost gone

Kiss me like you could do no wrong

Then leave me here to face the dawn

You love me like a vampire

I let you in, though I know your ways

You take a little more of me each day

And I still wish that you would stay

Outro

I still want you anyway

God, I wish I didn't
