On The Way Down 

I'm making excuses again tonight 
for why you shouldn't see me 
The Winter moon gives off low light 
It would illuminate your face 
a gorgeous silhouetted portrait 
would be etched onto my wall 
and ingrained into my mind 

And I don't think you should see how 
I'm tangled in my sheets 
and I may never unwind 
I've left the doors unlocked, love 
in case you do decide 
that you'd be willing to come 
come inside 

Kiss me on the way down 
Kiss me on the way down 
Kiss me on the way down 
Kiss me on the way down 

I'm making excuses again tonight, 
for why you shouldn't want me 
but magnetism takes its toll 
The whiskey glass that was empty 
is about to overflow 
from a lack of self control, 
but it's a surefire way to keep warm 

And I don't think you should see how 
I'm tangled in my sheets 
and I may never unwind 
I've left the doors unlocked, love 
in case you do decide 
that you'd be willing to come 
come inside 

Kiss me on the way down 
Kiss me on the way down 
Kiss me on the way down 
Kiss me on the way down 

Kiss me on the way down 
Kiss me on the way down 
Kiss me on the way down 
Kiss me on the way down
