Who Needs You

The Orwells - Who Needs You

[Intro]
She don't know you when your pockets tight
Only love you when the money right
She'll take everything you got hope you don't fall for it
I'm just warning you I know the type

[Verse 1]
One call, one ring, then kill the tone
A silent sign you’re safe and all alone
There's no room for mistakes with this fragile love
When shadows fall I’ll flash the brights
To signal one of our escape nights
You're the only real thing I'm thinking of

[Chorus]
We're undercover, a passion on the run
Trying to stop the pain before the sun
Just strangers by day, then lovers by the night
Yeah it feels so wrong, but you’re my only light
We're undercover, just trying to get away
Breathe in your poison for another day
Just strangers by day, then lovers by the night
Knowing this is wrong, but it’s my only light

[Verse 2]
If I'm with my crew and we cross paths
Don't even look, just do the math
Keep all my dark thoughts to myself, discreet 
But if the world is closing in
Have a random number text my pin
So no one knows it’s you I have to meet

[Chorus]
We're undercover, a passion on the run
Trying to stop the pain before the sun
Just strangers by day, then lovers by the night
Yeah it feels so wrong, but you’re my only light
We're undercover, just trying to get away
Breathe in your poison for another day
Just strangers by day, then lovers by the night
Knowing this is wrong, but it’s my only light

[Bridge]
I've got this feeling I can't shake
Last night a car pulled up and hit the brake
And that was not your ride, my only lover
And then a call came from some guy
Who wouldn't speak or say goodbye
I guess we're both just hiding from each other…

[Outro]
We're undercover, a passion on the run…
Trying to stop the pain before the sun…
Just you and me, our secret vow
But someone else is playing now
Guess two can play this painful game
Of whispering a different name
