[Verse 1]
You walked in
Lipstick smudge on my poster dream
Ripped black denim and a
Halo of smoke and steam
You laughed loud
Turned my guts into gasoline
You stole my seat
My breath
My teenage movie scene
[Chorus]
You’re my cherry-stained leather heart
Painted nails on a matchbook spark
Kiss me once and you tear me apart
I’m falling
I’m crawling
Through your wild dark
Yeah
My cherry-stained leather heart
Leave your name on my jacket scarred
If it breaks me
I’ll still play the part
‘Cause I’m branded
Stranded
On your leather heart
[Verse 2]
Backseat prayers
Running red lights through Friday night
Your boots on the dash
And trouble in your eyes
You said “boy
Love’s a ride you don’t survive”
I said “fine”
If it’s you at the wheel
I’ll drive
[Chorus]
You’re my cherry-stained leather heart
Painted nails on a matchbook spark
Kiss me once and you tear me apart
I’m falling
I’m crawling
Through your wild dark
Yeah
My cherry-stained leather heart
Leave your name on my jacket scarred
If it breaks me
I’ll still play the part
‘Cause I’m branded
Stranded
On your leather heart
[Bridge]
Maybe we crash at the county line (woah)
Maybe we burn out in your old driveway
But if this fire only lives tonight
I’ll light it all again the same damn way
[Chorus]
You’re my cherry-stained leather heart
Painted nails on a matchbook spark
Kiss me once and you tear me apart
I’m falling
Still calling
From your wild dark
Yeah
My cherry-stained leather heart
Leave your name on my jacket scarred
If it kills me
I’ll still play the part
I’m forever
Forever
In your leather heart (yeah)
