Perfect tense

Sing me your favourite song
Translate for me as you go along
So I can better understand

How you want to be loved
How you want to be loved
Living it up
You came in on a high tide
Calling to court all my fears
Letting it go
This wild untried emotion
Say it loud and say it clear
But you know we could talk
From dusk until dawn
And everything in my world
Would make sense
Rewind the night, let's get lost
From dusk until dawn
Pause it here
In the perfect tense
Sing me your favourite song
Translate for me as you go along
So I can better understand
How you want to be loved
How you want to be loved
Repeat it for me
One more time now
Make it as slow as you dare
Word by word
Interpreting this emotion
Share as much dear as you care
But you know we could talk
From dusk until dawn
And everything in my world
Would make sense
Rewind the night, let's get lost
From dusk until dawn
Pause it here
In the perfect tense
Sing me your favourite song
Translate for me as you go along
So I can better understand
How you want to be loved
How you want to be loved
How you want to be loved
How you want to be loved
How you want to be loved
