[Verse 1]
She picked me up, it was cold and it was raining
I slammed the door, kissed her cheek, she had been smoking
She indicated and we pulled into the flow of the night
We headed South, took the bridge across the river
We talked about what she had done since I'd been with her
I hadn't changed, but she just laughed when I apologized
[Chorus]
You were a heartbreaker, I could've told you that
But I could live with anything back then
You are a memory that I could never leave
If I could, I'd do it all again
[Post-Chorus]
'Cause I wanted her
Just like everyone
Just like everyone
Yeah, I wanted more
[Verse 2]
What do we get to keep? What do we borrow?
You asked me then if I had to work tomorrow
I said I'd throw it off and you could take me home
We waited for the lift, the walls were swimmin'
And then we rose through the floors and the ceilings
She turned the key in the lock and we fell inside
[Chorus]
You were a heartbreaker, I could've told you that
But I could live with anything back then
You are a memory that I could never leave
If I could, I'd do it all again
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
You were heartbreaker, I could've told you that
You were a heartbreaker, that wouldn't hold me back
You were heartbreaker, I could've told you that
You were a heartbreaker, that wouldn't hold me back
[Outro]
You don't look back
No, you don't look back
No, you don't look back
You don't look back
No, you don't look back
No, you don't look back
You don't look back
No, you don't look back
No, you don't look back
You don't look back
No, you don't look back
No, you don't look back

Tim Carroll:
“Elevator” was originally released on our second album, Paint (2017). This one has commonly been a favourite amongst fans, and we started the habit of playing it at shows in a stripped-back format. It feels nice to hear the words sung more introspectively and to allow the choral vocals...
