Blood Orange Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You know my body
You’ve put in the miles
And I know how your pulse feels
Tryna catch up with mine

[Verse 2]
We came to see a blood orange moon
And shiver up in a tent
I’ve come to see you in a different light
Oh, you know that wasn’t what I meant

[Chorus]
Passion ain’t built to last
(Didn’t see it coming, didn’t see it coming)
We all get a second chance
(This time we’ll see it coming, time we’ll see it coming)

[Verse 3]
Such silent silence
I can’t hear myself thinking out loud
I hope my heart speaks up
It will speak a truth I won’t allow

[Chorus]
Passion ain’t built to last
(Didn’t see it coming, didn’t see it coming)
We all get a second chance
(This time we’ll see it coming, time we’ll see it coming)
Passion ain’t built to last
(Didn’t see it coming, didn’t see it coming)
We all get a second chance
(This time we’ll see it coming, time we’ll see it coming)
[Instrumental break]

[Chorus]
Passion ain’t built to last
(Didn’t see it coming, didn’t see it coming)
We all get a second chance
(This time we’ll see it coming, time we’ll see it coming)
Passion ain’t built to last
(Didn’t see it coming, didn’t see it coming)
We all get a second chance
(This time we’ll see it coming, time we’ll see it coming)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
