Midnight on the porch, a single candle burns
Waiting for the moment that your shadow finally turns
I don't need a map to find where I belong
Just the quiet rhythm of our favorite summer song
The gravel crunches softly underneath your leather boots
Every time you walk my way, I'm going back to roots
Got a fire glowing low, just enough to catch your eye
And a blanket waiting for you underneath the open sky
I feel the temperature rising when you pull me close
You’re the intoxicating poison, you're the perfect dose
Tracing fingers down your spine, feeling every breath
We’re dancing on the edge, loving half to death
Cause you're a compass that points home
Every single time I start to wander or I roam
I just look into your eyes and the needle spins around
In the safety of your arms is the only place I'm found
Oh, the needle spins around
Right back to you, where my heart is anchored down
I can smell the sweet magnolia lingering inside your hair
When we tangle up together, losing all the clothes we wear
The world is spinning crazy, miles and miles away
But right here in this twilight is the only place I'll stay
I feel the temperature rising when you pull me close
You’re the intoxicating poison, you're the perfect dose
Tracing fingers down your spine, feeling every breath
We’re dancing on the edge, loving half to death
Cause you're a compass that points home
Every single time I start to wander or I roam
I just look into your eyes and the needle spins around
In the safety of your arms is the only place I'm found
Oh, the needle spins around
Right back to you, where my heart is anchored down
Cause you're a compass that points home
Sometimes the darkest roads can leave a heavy toll
But finding this connection is a healing for the soul
Lost inside a wilderness without a guiding light
Until the moment that we sparked a flame into the night
Rest your head against my chest, Sayed will keep you warm
I never knew a love could pull me in so deep
You're the beautiful reality that's better than my sleep
Cause you're a compass that points home
Every single time I start to wander or I roam
I just look into your eyes and the needle spins around
In the safety of your arms is the only place I'm found
Waiting for the moment that your shadow finally turns
I don't need a map to find where I belong
Just the quiet rhythm of our favorite summer song
The gravel crunches softly underneath your leather boots
Every time you walk my way, I'm going back to roots
Got a fire glowing low, just enough to catch your eye
And a blanket waiting for you underneath the open sky
I feel the temperature rising when you pull me close
You’re the intoxicating poison, you're the perfect dose
Tracing fingers down your spine, feeling every breath
We’re dancing on the edge, loving half to death
Cause you're a compass that points home
Every single time I start to wander or I roam
I just look into your eyes and the needle spins around
In the safety of your arms is the only place I'm found
Oh, the needle spins around
