[Verse 1] He parked his grin by your gate Black boots, silver ring Said, “Girl, I know your name” Like he’d been there in your dream You laughed at the warning sign You liked the way he stared Now he’s leaning in so close Like the dark was bred in there [Pre-Chorus] He said, “Baby, come on down Let the night take shape” Your hand shook in his palm But you didn’t pull away The floorboards sang your name The house went cold and still And every word he spoke Felt like a poison pill [Chorus] He wants your name on the line (Wants your name on the line) He wants a spark in your blood (Oh, in your blood) Don’t let him in, baby, don’t Don’t let him in tonight He’ll leave a mark in the dawn Then vanish with the light [Verse 2] He bought you pain in a glass And a sweet lie in a smile Said, “I can make you feel Like nobody in a while” You should’ve seen the smoke Curling out his sleeve But your heart went wild and loud Like it wanted to believe [Pre-Chorus] He said, “Baby, come on down I can heal that ache” Your knees went soft as rain When he whispered your name The mirrors all turned black The dog barked at the moon And you were standing in the edge Of some unforgiving room [Chorus] He wants your name on the line (Wants your name on the line) He wants a spark in your blood (Oh, in your blood) Don’t let him in, baby, don’t Don’t let him in tonight He’ll leave a mark in the dawn Then vanish with the light [Bridge] [Half-Time] If you hear that low, low call Lock the door, lock it hard If he lays that hand on you You’ll be living in the scar He don’t love, he only takes Leaves a prayer and a bruise You can hear the angels run When that old black deal comes through [Final Chorus] He wants your name on the line (Wants your name on the line) He wants a spark in your blood (Oh, in your blood) Don’t let him in, baby, don’t Don’t let him in tonight He’ll leave a mark in the dawn Then vanish with the light He wants your name on the line (Wants your name on the line) He wants a spark in your blood (Oh, in your blood)
