You don't have to be my sun,

I don't have to be the one,

let's turn the cheap air con

C Am F

Oh, my heart has been so cold

C Am F

Yeah, my heart has been so cold

I'm breakin' my bones, shedding my skin,

baring my soul and breathin' you in

Hit me with your true born heart

Girl, you could have a brand new start

Take off your coat, come on inside,

kick off your shoes, stay for while

Hit me with your true born heart,

Let go, we'll have a brand new start

oh, oh, oh

We just need a little,

There have been time we ruled the streets,

gettin' real happy when we danced to the beats,
