Lonely Child Lyrics & Chords By Christina Perri

Just as fast as you came
Just as fast the sunset
You pushed me away, you pushed me down
Down, down, down
Where my dreams lay

And just as quick you left
Just as quick as you left
My heart undressed and I fell down
Down, down, down
You took my wish back to the well

And I remember all the words that you said
That love is just a spark
That starts in your heart and ends in your head

Darling, calm down, calm down, you lose yourself in the clouds
Slow down, slow down, your world's spinning around
May your untamed heart stay restless, running wild
'Cause you're only just a lonely, lonely child

Just as dark as the night
Just as dark as the night went
I lost my mind, I lost control
Down, down, down
You let me steal my love for my soul

And I remember all the words that you wrote
That love is just the sound
That plays in your heart and gets caught in your throat

Darling, calm down, calm down, you lose yourself in the clouds
Slow down, slow down, your world's spinning around
May your untamed heart stay restless, running wild
'Cause you're only just a lonely, lonely child

And I remember all the words that you said
That love is just a spark
That starts in your heart and ends in your head

Darling, calm down, calm down, you lose yourself in the clouds
Slow down, slow down, your world's spinning around
May your untamed heart stay restless, running wild
'Cause you're only just a lonely
'Cause you're only just a lonely, lonely child
