Intro: verse 1 Sun went down, sun went down over Pompeii On both sides the vow was broken Oh my my, I'm the one trying to hide this damage done One day, all our secrets will be spoken Pre-Chorus 1 As we slow dance, I became your statue frozen ’Times I wonder, are we just a puff of smoke, yeah Underneath this bed of ashes, still withholding Everything like we were never close Don't you worry baby, no sense trying to change it I’ma strike these matches, never had control I'm ready to let go, was I feeling myself I'ma spread these ashes, never had control I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready to let go verse 2 Sun went down, sun went down over Pompeii On holy ground our vows were broken We met up, we broke bread, I was blue, your dress was red Ain't it strange, we both knew this day was coming Pre-Chorus 2 As we slow dance, I became your statue frozen ’Times I wonder, are we just a puff of smoke, yeah Underneath this bed of ashes, still withholding Everything like we were never close Don't you worry baby, no sense trying to change it I’ma strike these matches, never had control I'm ready to let go, was I feeling myself I'ma spread these ashes, never had control I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready to let go Interlude Don't you worry baby, no sense trying to change it I’ma strike these matches, never had control I'm ready to let go, was I feeling myself I'ma spread these ashes, never had control N.C. I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready to let go
