We spent our days in a near perfect place
That we found ourselves headfirst in
You'll say goodbye three days from now
You're flying back to England

Won't you stay around for the summer

Please say you'll be around for the summer
I promise that there's only one way
Only one choice to make

If you should leave we will begin to begin
To believe we dreamed the whole thing
Yesterday seemed real

It could all be over too soon
If it only makes sense after the event
We could be a lot too late

Looking to the moon at night
Getting used to used to being alone
Picture you by my side
Somebody that I don't know
I still miss your twisted heart

It feels like I'm coming round
Didn't I know it was wrong
The more that I long to sleep
The more I keep hearing your songs
And I still miss your twisted heart

I don't know how this will end
I made myself so hard to please
Made mistakes I know I did
I had my bad luck on repeat

Let you back into my life
Now I really wish you were gone
There is no real surprise
When I've been under so long
And I still miss your twisted heart

Those numbers you know so well
Fall over yourself to sell
Turns out
you're
the only one
No wonder you never tell
But you go out with a song
And it only brings it home

However we doubt ourselves
It's all over when the light comes back
Sometimes I hardly know at all
The cover you always call
When you drag me through the walls
And I don't know where to crawl

Everything you love comes back to haunt you
Ever since the safety went from under you

It always comes out like that
No other is at your side
I'm searching your hands for a catch
And I'm staring out into the night
But it's only like you do
To treat me like a fool

Everything you love comes back to haunt you
Ever since the safety went from under you
Every turn you take it all comes back to you
Everyone will say they've got your back for you

I have tried -
I still try

To make it seem like rainbows and silver linings
I still read -
I still write
Into magazines
Does anyone listen - anyone

Cause it's like
Nobody can hear the crying through the walls
Cause nobody answers
And I'm like
Am I the only person breathing in the air
Does nobody else care

I have tried -
I have made
Multicoloured pictures of our lives
We've seen some times - like the day

Those waterfalls were falling before our eyes
Does anyone see - anyone

Feel young and free
When the sun shines above me
The sounds of the city fill my heart with joy and beauty
Fountains of champagne to celebrate the next day
My generation’s full of optimism
What does it take?
What does it take to be here today?
