Lyrics: Amelia Hope Day
Music: Amelia Hope Day
[Verse 1]
Lady Los Angeles stole your heart
With her palms and a saccharine smile
How can I compete with a hollywood star
While your car's flashin' warning lights?
[Verse 2]
Everybody tells you that you're gonna go far
And you drink their words like holy wine
Drunk and stumbling you don't know where you are
Lost at the top of the climb
Nowhere left to hide
[Chorus]
Tell me the moment that your love ran cold
Your heartbeat dead in your chest
Tell me the moment that my love got old
I don't think I can stomach the rest
Love, you've thrown away your best
[Verse 3]
I'm your wide-eyed child, naive from the start
Trust whoever's holdin' me tight
But when I talk about love it's not a honeymoon heart
But a promise through the lows and the highs
Babe, you don't know how to try
[Chorus]
Tell me the moment that your love ran cold
Your heartbeat dead in your chest
Tell me the moment that my love got old
I don't think I can stomach the rest
Love, you've thrown away your best
[Bridge]
Take a hit, bite your lip
Lingerie on your hips
For a fool who doesn't care to reply
Makin' eyes, tell me lies
While I'm buyin' your flights
Tell me how do you sleep through the night?
Hold my hand, makin' plans
Get you off in the van
And then dump me at the Dixon line
Check the box make it quick
Alibis, cut your shit
Will you ever be satisfied?
[Chorus]
Tell me the moment that your love ran cold
Your heartbeat dead in your chest
Tell me the moment that our love got old
I don't think I can stomach the rest
[Outro]
Cause I told you the moment that my love took hold
My heart beatin' out of my chest
Told you the moment that I wanted you most
And that's when you wanted me less
Love, you've thrown away your best
