[Verse 1]
I miss your soft lips, I miss your white sheets
I miss the scratch of your unshaved face on my cheek
And this is so hard, 'cause I didn't see
That you were the love of my life and it kills me
I see your face in strangers on the street
I still say your name when I'm talkin' in my sleep
And in the limelight, I play it off fine
But I can't handle it when I turn off my nightlight

[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ah-ah)
But I can't handle it when I turn off my nightlight
(Ah-ah-ah)

[Chorus]
They say that true love hurts, well, this could almost kill me
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleepin' alone, -lone
The life is fading from me while you watch my heart bleed
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleepin' alone, -lone

[Verse 2]
Remember the time we jumped the fence when
The Stones were playin' and we were too broke to get in?
You held my hand and they made me cry while
I swore to God it was the best night of my life
Or when you took me across the world, we
Promised that this would last forever, but now I see
It was my past life, a beautiful time
Drunk off of nothing but each other 'til the sunrise
[Pre-Chorus]
(Ah-ah-ah)
Drunk off of nothing but each other 'til the sunrise

[Chorus]
They say that true love hurts, well, this could almost kill me
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleepin' alone, -lone
The life is fading from me while you watch my heart bleed
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleepin' alone, -lone

[Bridge]
It was my past life (He was my past life)
A beautiful time (Oh-ah)
Drunk off of nothing but each other 'til the sunrise
('Til the sunrise, 'til the sunrise)

[Chorus]
They say that true love hurts, well, this could almost kill me
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleepin' alone, -lone
The life is fading from me while you watch my heart bleed
Young love murder, that is what this must be
I would give it all to not be sleepin' alone, -lone
