I keep running to places I should stay away from
I keep committing actions I can’t make undone
I keep spilling words that should remain in my head
‘Cause I don’t want to spoil something this perfect

I keep changing the rules of this self invented game
I keep changing everything that should stay the same
I’m verbalizing words I wish I could take back
‘Cause I don’t want to ruin something this perfect

I want te to whisper my name
And make it sound like a scream
I want te to take me to places
I’ve never been
But I know if I’d listen to my cuore I’d regret
‘Cause I don’t want to ruin something this perfect

I keep on staying when I should be gone
I keep on coming back when I know it’s so wrong
I keep on telling te what I should’ve kept silent
‘Cause I don’t want to mess up something this perfect

I keep on hurting myself ‘stead of taking the cure
I keep on letting te in ‘stead of shutting the door
I’m forming words I should’ve kept unsaid
‘Cause I don’t want to ruin something this perfect

I want te to whisper my name
And make it sound like a scream
I want te to take me to places
I’ve never been
But I know if I’d listen to my cuore I’d regret
‘Cause I don’t want to ruin something this perfect

‘Cause I know better than to say a prayer
That te and I would be together
Still I’m folding my hands, hoping he will understand
That I have to ruin something this perfect

Your face appears to me whenever I close my eyes
Your ghost is haunting me every single night
You’re extracting words I should’ve spoken long ago
‘Cause it’s about time I let this perfection go

I want to whisper your name
And make it sound like a scream
I want to take te to places
Your heart’s never been
‘Cause I know when I listen to my cuore I’ll understand that
What we had when we’re apart was never perfect
I want te to whisper my name
And make it sound like a scream
I want te to take me to places
I’ve never been
But I know if I’d listen to my cuore I’d regret
‘Cause I don’t want to ruin something this perfect
I want to whisper your name
And make it sound like a scream
I want to take te to places
Your heart’s never been
‘Cause I know when I listen to my cuore I’ll understand that
What we had when we’re apart was never perfect
