[Verse 1: Marcus King, Marcus King & Noah Cyrus]
No, I know I don't deserve you
Maybe I could learn to turn water into wine
And you know, you know I'd never hurt you
May lose sight of my virtues when I look into your eyes
[Pre-Chorus: Marcus King & Noah Cyrus]
Heaven only knows what Heaven only knows
So baby, won't you kiss me in the shadows?
Hell could never judge us, like the sky that hangs above us
But where our lovin' grows is where I’ll go
[Chorus: Marcus King & Noah Cyrus]
I would risk it all
I would sell my soul
I'll follow you, even to the shadows
[Verse 2: Noah Cyrus]
You, you ain't perfect either
But you got me fallin' deeper

Ooh, and it's true, you made me a believer
Your love is such a healer
But you love to give me hell
[Pre-Chorus: Marcus King & Noah Cyrus]
Heaven only knows what Heaven only knows
So baby, won't you kiss me in the shadows?
Hell could never judge us like the sky that hangs above us
But where our lovin' grows is where I'll go
[Chorus: Marcus King & Noah Cyrus]
I would risk it all
I would sell my soul
I'd follow you, even to the shadows
I would risk it all
I would sell my soul
I'd follow you, even to the shadows
