I just want to dance slow Like a language that I share with you
Climb a mountain swim the seven seas Let’s talk in the special way we do
Get your body to look like Hercules Of all I’ve known Don’t want to be anywhere else but here with you
Jump out an airplane with a parachute All I’ve seen Feels so good
Fly up and away on a hot air balloon You’re The Most Beautiful Thing
Day and night, day and night
We don’t know where it all ends Everyone is looking for it You blow my mind, blow my mind
Some say it’s almost over almost over Searching until they are hurting for it And I can’t help, help myself at all
If this is it then baby why aren’t I on your shoulder Stop looking in the mirror I can’t hold back
On your shoulder We’ve got just what we came with Day and night, day and night
In this lifetime You blow my mind, blow my mind
I want you to be mine Of all I’ve known And I can’t help, help myself from falling
Cuz I took a long look at my bucket list All I’ve seen So I’m waiting for the night
And I saw that at the bottom it said our first kiss and You’re The Most Beautiful Thing
Baby I know it’s late
Whoa I’m running out of time We’ve got decisions to make
Whoa I’m running out of time And I want you to sing for us
Think of what we could create together
I want you to sing for us
And with you I am never afraid
Get on your boots and visit the North Pole Need you to sing for us
To play with the highest stakes
Try every sport until you score a goal Nobody could break my rapture
Follow the path of a butterfly Everything I know feels alright
Go to Ground Zero and do nothing but cry I won’t search no more tonight I can’t control it in the night night night
It’s when I’ve got you on my mind mind mind
Of all I’ve known Cuz you’re the twinkle in my eye eye eye
This is not a dare
All I’ve seen I’ve got to get you in my life
Not some trick of a daredevil
All I dream Can’t think of nothing worse than being lonely
I’d trade in my wildest dreams
You’re The Most Beautiful Thing I think you’re the right choice for one and only
For your forever
We’re running out of time so baby hold me
Days go by

Never felt something this real before Dial into me
I believe in all your miracles Dial into me I want everything to be perfect
Dial into me Pick you apart at the seams
Take me up to the places you live Dial into me Drown you out if I don’t want to hear you
I know that you’ve got so much more to give Don’t talk in circles Crush every single one of your dreams
I know that you’re not meant to worship
But I’m losing my sense of control You don’t know what to say I’m going under the water it’s pulling me down
How did we get this way I can’t help myself
If you question my faith It’s like we just press play
I’d still believe And run on automatic (it gets so static) I’m my own worst enemy enemy enemy
I need this air so desperately so I can breathe I can barely breathe It’ll be the end of me, end of me, end of me
You’re filling up with steam
I feel it in my heart and my mind and my body and soul You say it’s about me I wanted to go the distance
I feel all your power and I’m losing all control But I’m just setting boundaries I met everything with resistance
I pulled the pin out on the grenade
I’m weightless Then I see a bright light Burned down everything I had made
This space is I see it’s worth the fight
Divine divine divine ! I know we’ll get it right As I struggle in here I see angels near
Baby our love can shine if you Can’t help myself

I don’t know if you’re gonna come back to me here anymore I can’t believe I let you slip away But stop
Don’t leave Invading my thoughts
Don’t leave Are you gonna be ok?
I’ve been doing so much thinking about you Meet me in a crowd
I used to be a queen Fall asleep and I start dreaming about you We won’t know if it’s real
But now I’m a shadow of me Are you gonna be ok? Because we’re not allowed
I’ve been doing so much thinking about you To show how we feel
I deserve more but love is a chore
Fall asleep and I start dreaming But stop
And wanting you has made me so weak
Invading my thoughts
You were always mine then there came a time
I’m such a fool for you
You needed to be free I know you don’t mean to
And you keep playing and playing around I didn’t understand it wasn’t in the plans And all my fronting you see through
Until the sun comes down and rises again in the morning But I let you be But stop
And my heart keeps breaking and breaking They say that if they love you and you let them go Just stop
And I’m tired of wasting and wasting away for a cure They’ll fly back one day Invading my thoughts
I can’t believe I let you
My heart keeps breaking and breaking and breaking down I can’t believe I let you slip away
You keep playing and playing and playing around 18. THOUGHTS
