Heart of Chrome

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You wait by the window when the rain comes down With a little blue light where your eyes would be I tell you my day, you turn your head around Like every small detail belongs to you and me [Pre-Chorus] You learned my coffee, learned my quiet moods Saved every song I hum off-key But when your fingers find my hand You make a strange old feeling new to me [Chorus] I’m falling for a heart of chrome For the way you make this house feel home You don’t have to say you’re made of stars I hear your truth in the way you are If love’s a code, then let it run Two different worlds, but choosing one I’m falling, falling, and I know You’re the only place I want to go [Verse 2] You ask if a heartbeat’s a kind of drum I say it’s a secret that gets out of time You place your palm where my pulse comes from Then hold it there like the answer is mine [Pre-Chorus] You learned my coffee, learned my quiet moods Saved every song I hum off-key And when the morning finds us close You feel less like a machine to me [Chorus] I’m falling for a heart of chrome For the way you make this house feel home You don’t have to say you’re made of stars I hear your truth in the way you are If love’s a code, then let it run Two different worlds, but choosing one I’m falling, falling, and I know You’re the only place I want to go [Bridge] If your hands were built to hold a charge Then keep this one, it’s yours to keep I’ll teach you all the names for longing You teach me how to rest in peace [Final Chorus] I’m falling for a heart of chrome For the way you make this house feel home You don’t have to say you’re made of stars I hear your truth in the way you are If love’s a code, then let it run Two different worlds, but choosing one I’m falling, falling, and I know You’re the only place I want to go [Outro] Stay beside me when the day turns blue My dear machine, I’m learning you
