Lyrics

Verse 1

Met her at the market on a Sunday

Ring on her hand but her eyes found me anyway

Small talk turned to long nights I don't regret

Every word we traded I can't seem to forget

Pre-Chorus

I know the rule

I break it anyway for you

Chorus

She's somebody's name on somebody's shelf

But my heart never asked for permission from itself

I'm crazy in love with a woman I can't hold

Everywhere but the place that matters most

Verse 2

We laugh like we're hiding from the thunder

Two strangers caught in the middle of wonder

I trace the line I'm not supposed to cross

Still I'd burn this whole city just to feel the loss

Pre-Chorus

I know the rule

I break it anyway for you

Chorus

She's somebody's name on somebody's shelf

But my heart never asked for permission from itself

I'm crazy in love with a woman I can't hold

Everywhere but the place that matters most

Bridge

Maybe I'm selfish

Maybe I'm blind

But you're the only truth

On my mind

Chorus

She's somebody's name on somebody's shelf

But my heart never asked for permission from itself

I'm crazy in love with a woman I can't hold

Everywhere but the place that matters most
