I see the confidence in your eyes
Pale blue, they compliment you like ice
Takes time to break before it can slice
I'm petrified
(Ah)
You rolled the dice, and it hit a strike
The match was perfect at the first sight
Thought I'd like to try you on for size
You don't fit right
When the sand had fell, you got buried deep
When the time ran out, you would flip the switch
Tired of waking up, I'll put it to sleep
'Cause the time is now, I'm so over this
When we're hours into the night, I'll be running for you, chasing starlight, missing all the brightest opportunities
When we're hours into the night, I'll expect to see the light in your eyes, telling me that this is all I need in life to shine
Brighter than the brightest star, no matter who or what you are
When we're hours into the night, when the whole world comes to life, is when you'll discover why you're alive
When we're hours into the night
Someone told me that you were around
I searched for you through the whole damn town
Like treasure lost at sea, you were found
Took to the clouds
(Ah)
Appraised my finds and yet, they were fake
Mistook amazement for counterfeit
Your face was false commercial estate
Now I'm afraid
When the sand had fell, you got buried deep
When the time ran out, you would flip the switch
Tired of waking up, I'll put it to sleep
'Cause the time is now, I'm so over this
When we're hours into the night, I'll be running for you, chasing starlight, missing all the brightest opportunities
When we're hours into the night, I'll expect to see the light in your eyes, telling me that this is all I need in life to shine
Brighter than the brightest star, no matter who or what you are
When we're hours into the night, when the whole world comes to life, is when you'll discover why you're alive
When we're hours into the night
When we're hours into the night
'Cause you keep me alive, I don't have to survive
I need you, so I can thrive upon this energy
You turn doubt into dust, you're the one I can trust
I need you, and we must syncopate this synergy
You align dominoes, light up every show
And I need you to know, you're my only prophecy
When we get to the end, you'll be more than a friend
Could we do this again, and again, and again, and again?
When we're hours into the night, I'll be running for you, chasing starlight, missing all the brightest opportunities
When we're hours into the night, I'll expect to see the light in your eyes, telling me that this is all I need in life to shine
Brighter than the brightest star, no matter who or what you are
When we're hours into the night, when the whole world comes to life, is when you'll discover why you're alive
When we're hours into the night
When we're hours into the night
Brighter than the brightest star, no matter who or what you are
When we're hours into the night, when the whole world comes to life, is when you'll discover why you're alive
When we're hours into the night
