[Verse 1] Your red coat swings by the basement door Two silver rings and a grin that warns You say my name like a little dare I follow the spell down the staircase there [Pre-Chorus] One slow turn, then the room breaks loose Your cold hand finds mine; I can’t refuse [Chorus] Kiss me where the midnight dancers go Spin me till the old clocks lose control You’re the bite I choose, the fever I keep Pull me from the dark, don’t let me sleep [Verse 2] The mirror fogs when you pass it by A paper crown and a sharpened eye Your laugh cuts clean through the velvet air I trade my pulse for a moment there [Pre-Chorus] One slow turn, then the room breaks loose Your cold hand finds mine; I can’t refuse [Chorus] Kiss me where the midnight dancers go Spin me till the old clocks lose control You’re the bite I choose, the fever I keep Pull me from the dark, don’t let me sleep [Bridge] When the last train leaves the square Will you still be waiting there? No sunrise can undo this vow Take my heartbeat—take it now [Final Chorus] Kiss me where the midnight dancers go Spin me till the old clocks lose control You’re the bite I choose, the fever I keep Pull me from the dark, don’t let me sleep [Outro] Don’t let me sleep
