She checks her pulse; gotta know if her heart's still beating
And the hospital's not far if anything should happen here

She's bored in a week, big dreams but nothing material
And I refuse to believe that love is for the weak
I said I'm not vulnerable

Hey lady, don't give up on me
Don't burn your heart out, Love
Til we're ash over seas
Hey lady, I don't wanna fight
Like pretty girls need cowboys
I need you here tonight

She screams for more
More than just some blue-eyed metaphor
And the trouble is, the trouble is, she's always searching
And the hour's late, don't wanna hear that it's all gonna end soon
No, I'm not crazy I'm in control,
Yeah and all of my friends still know

Hey lady, don't give up on me
Don't burn your heart out, Love
Til we're ash over seas
And hey lady, said I don't wanna fight
Like pretty girls need cowboys
I need you here tonight

I'm on one knee, lover please,
How can I put it more simply?
And I wait, for your invitation
And I'm so, so, so, so over waiting
I'm on one knee, lover please,
How can I put it more simply?

And hey lady, don't give up on me
Don't burn your heart out, Love
Till we're ash over seas
Hey lady, don't give up on me
Don't burn your heart out, Love
Till we're ash over seas
Hey lady, said I don't wanna fight
Like pretty girls need cowboys
I need you here tonight
