Don't stop me from falling, 'cause I don't wanna play pretend
'Cause I just wanna let you in the world I'm in
'Cause I like the way that you're moving

Don't stop me from dreaming,
you're playing with fire and I can't hold back
'Cause I like the way that you're moving

Hopeful romantic, I don't ever wanna be alone
It's automatic 'cause you know I'm gonna lose control
I'm in the static, I'm an addict and you've got to know
Hopeful romantic, hopeful romantic

I'm caught up in you and I don't know what else to do
'Cause I'm under attack and I've got it bad for you
Come bother me, come bother me
'Cause I'm begging for mercy, I'm down on my knees

Hopeful romantic, I don't ever wanna be alone
It's automatic 'cause you know I'm gonna lose control
I'm in the static, I'm an addict and you've got to know
Hopeful romantic, hopeful romantic

You want to get in the way (I want you to)
If you've got nothing to say (I'll take abuse)
'Cause I got a fever tonight, you've got me down on my knees
(You've got me down on my knees)

Hopeful romantic, I don't ever wanna be alone
It's automatic 'cause you know I'm gonna lose control
I'm in the static, I'm an addict and you've got to know
Hopeful romantic, hopeful romantic

You've got me down on my knees
(Hopeful romantic)
and I don't know what else to do
(Hopeful romantic)

I'm in the static, I'm an addict and you've got to know
Hopeful romantic, hopeful romantic
