Claws lyrics

I know it's a little old-fashioned

Holdin' hands, now start your romancin'

Show me all your flaws

Show me your bear claws

Go rip your heart out tonight

You don't have to be cool to make me shiver

Look in my eyes, can I make this any clearer?

Just a late-night girl, calling through a phone

She never really loved you so just leave her alone

Your mama says it's over when you come through the door

Saying, "that's enough of you, now won't you shut your mouth?"

Ay, oh, I'll never let you go

Ay, oh, I'll never let you go

You say goodbye as if you're leaving on a plane

And you've seen the clouds and how the shapes are so strange

And not a boy in the backseat, staying in the backseat

Tryin' to make sense of it all

Saying, "we were such a good thing, we were such a good thing

How could you let this fall?"

Take all my money and meet me on the sidewalk

If you don't show then I'll know

Just a late-night girl, calling through a phone

She never really loved you so just leave her alone

Your mama says it's over when you come through the door

Saying, "that's enough of you, now won't you shut your mouth?"

Ay, oh, I'll never let you go

Ay, oh, I'll never let you go

Show me all your flaws

Show me your bear claws

Go rip your heart out tonight

You were just a late-night girl, calling through a phone

She never really loved you so just leave her alone

Your mama says it's over when you come through the door

Saying, "that's enough of you, now won't you shut your mouth

That's enough of you, kid, now you're going south, love"

Ay, oh, I'll never let you go

Ay, oh, I'll never let you go

Ay, oh, I'll never let you go (show me all your flaws)

Ay, oh, I'll never let you go (show me your bear claws)
