Say it back

I need to hear you, need your baby back

I play it cool

I miss your kisses on a feedback loop

And now the lights are gettin' low, mirror balls and pheromones

I can be a social hand grenade

Tick-tick-tick-tick boom

And everybody's gettin' close, taking off each other's clothes

I wonder where you are tonight

It's a cruel world without you, baby

It's a cruel world

Sugar, don't you be running away for long, please

Let's catch a movie and get caught in the rain

Wherever you are is my favourite place

It's a cruel world without you, baby

So sad

You're playin' shows, I'm comatose in my bed

(Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah)

And I'll be going out tonight

I don't know what else to do with myself

We'll be more than lovers holding tight under ultraviolet light

Before I kill the buzz and I

Curl-curl-curl up and die

Everybody's gettin' close, taking off each other's clothes

I wonder where you are tonight

And it's a cruel world without you, baby

It's a cruel world

No, sugar, don't you be running away for long, please

We're hand in hand as the band starts to play

Wherever you are is my favourite place

And it's a cruel world without you, baby

It's a cruel world without your arms around me

Need you close to me, close to me

How am I supposed to breathe without you, babe?

I need you touching me, touching me

It's a cruel world without you, baby, oh, yeah

It's a cruel world

Sugar, don't you be running away for long, please

Take off your shoes and sit around for a change

It could be real cute if this time you stay

It's a cruel world without you, baby

It's a cruel world without your arms around me

Need you close to me, close to me

(Hey, yeah-yeah-yeah, hey, yeah-yeah-yeah)

(It's a real cruel world, baby)

How am I supposed to breathe without you, babe?

(It's a cruel, cruel world)
