[Verse 1: Matt Berninger]
The first time I saw you, you were walking out
I wanted to ask you if you could stay
But you were on something with your friends around
There was nothing I could say

[Chorus: Matt Berninger + Annie Clark]
But I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while
I'm gonna keep you in love with me
I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while
I'm gonna keep you in love with me

[Verse 2: Annie Clark]
The first time I saw you, you were breaking down
You looked right at me, you were the same
Looked right at me, I just turned around
There was still nothing I could say

[Chorus: Matt Berninger + Annie Clark]
But I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while
I'm gonna keep you in love with me
I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while
I'm gonna keep you in love with me

[Bridge: Matt Berninger]
I have dreams of anonymous castrati
Singing to us from the sea
I have dreams of a first man and a first lady
Singing to us from the tree
[Chorus: Matt Berninger + Annie Clark]
But I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while
I'm gonna keep you in love with me
I'm gonna keep you in love with me for a while
I'm gonna keep you in love with me

[Bridge: Matt Berninger]
I have dreams of anonymous castrati
Singing to us from the sea
I have dreams of a first man and a first lady
Singing to us from the tree
