tequila and lime

Verse 1 I used to chase temptation like tequila and lime Burn my throat, call it living my life Every red flag looked green in the night Every wrong turn felt right at the time I’d fall for the rush, not the love Thought chaos was heaven above Didn’t know peace was enough Didn’t know slow was a must Pre-Chorus I was addicted to the almost To the feeling, not the real close Heart racing like a downtown light Didn’t care if it burned me alive Chorus I used to chase temptation like tequila and lime Now I’m sipping something sweeter with time Used to want the fire, now I want the flame That don’t disappear when it rains I was wild, I was reckless, I was young Thought the damage meant I’d won But I finally learned what’s mine Ain’t found at the bottom of a glass with lime Verse 2 Text at 2AM, I’d slide Didn’t matter if it wasn’t right I’d confuse desire with love Call it fate when it was just lust Now I’m choosing better days Real smiles over cheap champagne If it costs my peace, I decline No more chasing neon signs Bridge I don’t miss the hangover mornings Or the guilt that came with warning I don’t miss who I was back then I’m proud of the man I am Final Chorus I used to chase temptation like tequila and lime Now I’m patient with this heart of mine And it tastes better every time
