Lyrics:
[Verse 1: Matt Berninger & Annie Clark] Weary sun, sleep tonight, go crashing into the ocean Cut the line that ties the tide and moon, ancient and blue We take our empty hearts and fill them up with broken things To hang on humming wire like cheap lamps down a dead end street [Pre-Chorus: Matt Berninger & Annie Clark] (Close your weary eyes) And every time we turn away (Until the wintertime) It hits me like a tidal wave I would change for you But, babe, that doesn't mean I'm gonna be a better man Give the ocean what I took from you So one day you can find it in the sand And hold it in your hands again [Chorus: Matt Berninger & Annie Clark] Cold ways kill cool lovers Strange ways we use each other Why won't you fall back in love with me? There ain't no way we're gonna find another The way we sleep all summer So why won't you fall back in love with me? [Post-Chorus: Matt Berninger & Annie Clark] Combing over Broken Cross I held on you Haunted by the ghost of something new [Verse 2: Matt Berninger & Annie Clark] Curtains fall, fashions fade, an endless summer over Another tide to launch an autumn moon over the dunes There must be a better way to pull a whole apart To keep the world from caving in Another way to while away from you, frozen and blue [Pre-Chorus: Matt Berninger & Annie Clark] (Close your weary eyes) And every time we turn away (Until the wintertime) It hits me like a tidal wave I would change for you But, babe, that doesn't mean I'm gonna be a better man Give the ocean what I took from you So one day you can find it in the sand And hold it in your hands again [Chorus: Matt Berninger & Annie Clark] Cold ways kill cool lovers Strange ways we love to suffer Why won't you fall back in love with me? There ain't no way we're gonna find another The way we sleep all summer So why won't you fall back in love with me? [Outro: Matt Berninger & Annie Clark] Why won't you fall back in love with me? Why won't you fall back in love with me? Why won't you fall back in love with me?
