They say I burn too fast to ever last— Keep my suitcase packed and my heart in the past.
But I’m done with hollow nights and neon truths— I want a slow dance kind of truth.
Had lovers who left like a jukebox song— Good while it played, then it all felt wrong.
Tired of lips that taste like lies— I need real. No alibis.
I’m not chasin’ fire just to feel the burn— This time, I want the love that learns…
I just wanna love somebody like that— Who don’t walk out when the lights go black.
Not a good-time high or a one-night fix, But a front-porch life and a kiss that sticks.
Someone real with no disguise… Who looks at me and sees the guy
They’d write a song about and never take back— I just wanna love somebody like that.
I ain’t the same boy I used to be— Ran from love ‘til love ran from me.
Now I know what I’ve been missin’— Not a thrill… but someone listenin’.
She ain’t gold chains or big city dreams— She’s barefoot truth in faded jeans…
I just wanna love somebody like that— Who don’t walk out when the lights go black.
Not a good-time high or a one-night fix, But a front-porch life and a kiss that sticks.
Someone real with no disguise… Who looks at me and sees the guy
They’d write a song about and never take back— I just wanna love somebody like that.
Not perfect, not polished… but we fit tight— Like hands held in the middle of the night.
And when she says my name that way… I know I’m finally here to stay.
I just wanna love somebody like that— Who don’t walk out when the lights go black.
Not a good-time high or a one-night fix, But a front-porch life and a kiss that sticks.
Someone real with no disguise… Who looks at me and sees the guy
They’d write a song about and never take back— I just wanna love somebody like that.
