[Verse 1: Ben Lee]
This is the first day of the future
And all I want is you
I wear a pair of socks you left here
But I know, I know, I know, nobody could ever fill your shoes
[Chorus]
I can see so clearly when the smoke gets in my eyes
Please me with your promises, and hurt me with your lies
Baby, can you hear the message I am sending?
Love me like the world is ending
[Verse 2: Ben Lee]
This is the last day of existence
And I want is you
And there's a certain sadness
But I know, I know, I know the sky is what makes the ocean blue
I know, I know, I know the sky is what makes the ocean blue
[Chorus]
I can see so clearly when the smoke gets in my eyes
Please me with your promises, and hurt me with your lies
Baby, can you hear the message I am sending?
Love me like the world is ending
Love me like the world is ending
[Bridge: Ben Lee]
They all say to pour it has to rain
So don't complain, if we get wet in the deep end
[Chorus]
I can see so clearly when the smoke gets in my eyes
Please me with your promises, and hurt me with your lies
Baby, can you hear the message I am sending?
Love me like the world is ending
Love me like the world is ending
C'mon and love me like the world is ending
