JJXO Single: Released January 2014

lyrics

Right now I can be everything you want, if that is all it takes
Right now I can be everything you need, the way your body breaks
Better late than never
Better cute than clever
Better off if you don’t know me

No, don’t hold me back
No, don’t hold me back

This life, this love, is everything you want, no need to act so tough
This life, this love, is everything you need, if I could keep it rough
Better late than never
Better cute than clever
Better off without the complications of thinking
Better safe than sorry
Better ordinary
Better off if you don’t know me

No, don’t hold me back
No, don’t hold me

I’ll ride, out on my own, with the righteous
I’ll try to find a home for my vices

Better late than never
Better cute than clever
Better off without the complications of thinking
Better safe than sorry
Better ordinary
Better off if you don’t know me

No, don’t hold me back
No, don’t hold me back
No, don’t hold me back
No, don’t hold me back

This is the last time I fall for you.
