One last song plays on the radio
The sun burns the light away
But In the morning I wanna see your fierce face

I’m not asking you to keep your mark
No longer may you wanna stay
The night was like a deck of cards
He hit me with the ace of clubs
I’d place a lot of bets, beggin you to wear sunblock

Ophelia come on

I’ll bring you gems from far away lands
Or Italian leather shoes
You’re the finest thing I’ve ever seen like
Band bells eyes its true

Ophelia can I spend the night with you
Ophelia come on

Corns and roads have corn grown high
Or the tall grass we could hide
All these pages of an open book
Tangled up between the lights
Cause where you’ll find me

All right, I’ve tried my best. Some of these lines are pretty tricky…. Let’s hope this is on the EP, with lyrics included.

One last song plays on the radio

The sun burns the night away

But in the morning I only wanna see Ophelia’s face

I’ll not ask to keep you more

For longer than you wanna stay

The night was like a deck of cards

You hit me with the ace of clubs

I’m placing all my bets
Baby you could use some love

Ophelia, come on

I’ll bring you gems from far away lands

Or Italian leather shoes

You’re the finest thing I’ve ever seen
Like fire melts ice it’s true (???)
Ophelia can I spend the night with you


Ophelia, come on

Rows and roads (???) have called me on high

In the tall grass we could hide

All these pages of an open book

We’re taking up (or tangling up?) its sweet lines

That’s where you’ll find me
Dying (trying?) to fill your empty time

Ophelia, come on

These should be the right lyrics:

Strangers crash into the night
This train’s headed for you babe
One last song plays on the radio
The sun burns the night away
In the morning I only want to see Ophelia’s face

I’m not asking to keep you long
Or longer than you want to stay
The night was like a deck of cards
You hit me with the ace of clubs
I’m placing all my bets, begging you to give some love

Ophelia, come on

Rows and rows of corn grown high
In the tall grass we could hide
Honest pages of an open book
Tangled up inside the lines
Is where you’ll find me, dying to fill your empty time

Bring you gems from far away lands
Or Italian leather shoes
You’re the finest thing I’ve ever seen
Like the fire melts ice it’s June
Ophelia can I spend the night with you?

Ophelia, come on
Ophelia. come on

haha. i only ask because they are shockingly accurate, and also only 2 versions exist on youtube and neither contain the first line of the first verse, so i assumed this person had some non-public info haha.
