Lyrics Christina Perri

Christina Perri

Lonely Child

Just as fast as you came

Just as fast the sun set

You pushed me away, you pushed me down

Down, down, down, where my dreams lay

And just as quick as you left

Just as quick as you left my heart undressed

And I fell down, down, down, down

You took my wish back to the well

And I remember all the words that you said

That love is just a spark that starts in your heart

And ends your head

Darling calm down, calm down

You'll lose yourself in the clouds

Slow down, slow down

Your world’s spinning around

May your untamed heart stay restless running wild

Cause you're only, just a lonely lonely child

Just as dark as the night

Just as dark as the night went

I lost my mind, I lost control

Down, down, down

You let me steal my love for my soul

And I remember all the words that you wrote

That love is just the sound that plays in your heart

And gets caught in your throat

Darling calm down, calm down

You'll lose yourself in the clouds

Slow down, slow down

Your world’s spinning around,

May your untamed heart stay restless running wild

Cause you're only, just a lonely lonely child

And I remember all the words that you said

That love is just a spark that starts in your heart

And ends in your head

Darling calm down, calm down

You'll lose yourself in the clouds

Slow down, slow down

Your world’s spinning around

May your untamed heart stay restless running wild

Cause you're, just a lonely

Yes you're only, just a lonely lonely child
