Dashboard Confessional - Hands Down



Breathe in for luck, breathe in so deep

This air is blessed, you share with me

This night is wild, so calm and dull

These hearts they race from self-control

Your legs are smooth as they graze mine

We're doing fine, we're doing nothing at all.



My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me

So won't you kill me, so I die happy

My heart is yours to fill or burst

to break or bury, or wear as jewelery

Whichever you prefer



The words are hushed lets not get busted,

just lay entwined here undiscovered.

Safe in here from all the stupid questions.

"Hey did you get some?"

"Man, that is so dumb."

Stay quiet, stay near, stay close

they can't hear, so we can get some.



My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me

So won't you kill me, so I die happy

My heart is yours to fill or burst

to break or bury, or wear as jewelery

Which ever you prefer



Hands down this is the best day I can ever remember

I'll always remember the sound of the stereo

The dim of the soft lights, the scent of your hair

That you twirled in your fingers

And the time on the clock when we realized it was so late

And this walk that we shared together

The streets were wet and the gate was locked

So I jumped it and I let you in

And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist

And you kissed me like you meant it

And I knew, that you meant it

That you meant it, that you meant it

I knew that you meant it, that you meant it
