For Mia Lyrics
[Verse 1]
For you, Mia
I've got a wrong to right
For you, Mia
I'm gonna wake the woman in you up tonight
[Bridge]
I'm outside your window
[Chorus 1]
Oh, I'm aiming at your heart with a shot in the dark
Holding back "I love you"
Running in circles through the neighbor's yard
Oh, I'm waking up your folks and I'm causing a scene
Screaming out for Mia
And she'll come running after me
[Verse 2]
For you, Mia
I've got a bone to pick
For you, Mia
I'm gonna wind the second hand that makes you tick
[Bridge]
Before this is over
For you, Mia
I've got a wrong to right
For you, Mia
I'm gonna wake the woman in you up tonight
[Bridge]
I'm outside your window
[Chorus 1]
Oh, I'm aiming at your heart with a shot in the dark
Holding back "I love you"
Running in circles through the neighbor's yard
Oh, I'm waking up your folks and I'm causing a scene
Screaming out for Mia
And she'll come running after me
[Verse 2]
For you, Mia
I've got a bone to pick
For you, Mia
I'm gonna wind the second hand that makes you tick
[Bridge]
Before this is over
[Chorus 2]
Oh, I'm waking up your folks and I'm up to no good
Screaming out "I love you"
Raising the eyebrows of the neighborhood
Oh, there's not time enough to hear what I wanted to say
But I could take forever
And let my Mia wait today
[Break]
Morning breaks on Logan Street
Five minutes of walking away
And I'm wondering
If she's so perfect
Why does leaving always seem so right?
[Chorus 3]
Oh, I'm aiming at your heart with a shot in the dark
Holding back "I love you"
Running in circles through the neighbor's yard
Oh, there's not time enough to hear what I wanted to say
But I could take forever
And let my Mia sleep today
Oh, I'm waking up your folks and I'm up to no good
Screaming out "I love you"
Raising the eyebrows of the neighborhood
Oh, there's not time enough to hear what I wanted to say
But I could take forever
And let my Mia wait today
[Break]
Morning breaks on Logan Street
Five minutes of walking away
And I'm wondering
If she's so perfect
Why does leaving always seem so right?
[Chorus 3]
Oh, I'm aiming at your heart with a shot in the dark
Holding back "I love you"
Running in circles through the neighbor's yard
Oh, there's not time enough to hear what I wanted to say
But I could take forever
And let my Mia sleep today
