Verse 1 Miami heat, she came in on a plane Diamonds catching light, whispering my name Somebody told me, “Don’t let her in your head” I said I hear you, but I went home with her instead She got a way of making empty feel like everything Until the morning comes and steals it back again Pre-Chorus She got New York in her walk London in her talk Monaco money and a Vegas smile Gone in a little while Chorus She’s on every scene, every scene, every scene Lighting up a room, but she don’t mean A single word she whispers when it’s late Everybody wants her — I ignored the warning, made the same mistake She’ll have you flying, feeling so alive Then she disappears and takes the light Don’t fall in love, don’t fall in love She’s on every scene Verse 2 Second night I saw her, told myself it’s fine Third night I was calling it destiny, not a pattern, not a sign São Paulo, Tokyo — she don’t stay for anyone I kept score of all the cities, thought that meant I’d won But you can’t hold a feeling that was never built to stay She was never leaving with me — I was always in her way Bridge (half-time, stripped down) I fell in love with the feeling, not the girl Thought I found forever in a borrowed world Now the party’s over, and I’m on the floor Same story different city, she’s already out the door Everyone gets left the same Nobody ever learns her name I didn’t listen — now I know why they warned me Final Chorus She’s on every scene, every scene, every scene Breaking hearts in every city I ain’t seen She’ll have you flying, feeling so alive Then she’s gone before the morning light I’m just one more face that she ran through Everybody loves her — she don’t love you She never loved you She’s on every scene Outro (fading, echoed vocal chop) On every scene… on every scene… She was never really there at all
