"Requiem For Blue Jeans" lyrics - BASTILLE

"Oh my God, Harry"

Blue jeans, white shirt
Walked into the room you know I made your eyes burn
I was like James Dean, for sure
I'm so fresh to death and sick as ca-ca-cancer
I was sorta punk rock, you grew up on hip hop
I fit you better than your favourite sweater
You know that love is mean, love hurts
You still remember that day we met in December, oh baby

[Chorus:]
I will love you 'til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you'll remember that you're mine
Baby can you see through the tears?
Love you more than those bitches before
Say you'll remember, say you'll remember
Baby oh
I will love you 'til the end of time

Big dreams, gangster
Said I had to leave to start my life over
You were like: "No please, stay here"
We don't need no money we can make it all work
But I headed out on Sunday, said I'd come home Monday
You stayed up waitin', anticipatin', and pacin'
But I was chasing paper
"Caught up in the game" that was the last you heard
Oh baby

[Chorus:]
I will love you 'til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you'll remember that you're mine
Baby can you see through the tears?
Love you more than those bitches before
Say you'll remember, say you'll remember
Baby oh
I will love you 'til the end of time

[Outro:]
I will love you 'til the end of time
(You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve)
I would wait a million years
(And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground)
Baby can you see through the tears?
(You have always worn your flaws upon your sleeve)
Baby oh
(And I have always buried them deep beneath the ground)
