take it to the grave Lyrics by Harper Grace
Gonna be a R.I.P
Once I get your heartbeat falling for me
They’re gonna write it on your stone
Killed by love
Only gonna take one kiss
Gonna taste heaven on my lips
My touch will take you higher than the clouds above
Got that Texas flavor for ya
Don’t say I didn’t warn ya
Take it to the grave
Take it to the grave
You’re never gonna be the same
I’ll take it to the grave
Ain’t gonna get your heart back
Cause I’m taking it to the grave
If I take your time, you won’t want it back
If we saddle up, you’re gonna wanna pack
If another girl ever wanna hold ya
Too late, cause I already own ya
Get that southbound down home cookin’
I’ll keep them blue eyes locked on looking
Take it to the grave
Take it to the grave
You’re never gonna be the same
I’ll take it to the grave
Ain’t gonna get your heart back
Cause I’m taking it to the grave
When I get you fallin’ don’t blame me
When I steal your lovin’ don’t hate me
Gonna make it easy like gravy
Take this as a warning, baby
Never get it again, this tasty
Gonna be the thing you’re craving
Take it to the grave
Take it to the grave
You’re never gonna be the same
I’ll take it to the grave
Ain’t gonna get your heart back
Cause I’m taking it to the grave
Take it to the grave
Take it to the grave
You’re never gonna be the same
I’ll take it to the grave
Ain’t gonna get your heart back
Cause I’m taking it to the grave
