ALIVE

I didn't set out to write another love song, but then I came up with the cheesiest DX7-style riff imaginable.

Listen

Lyrics

I wanna go where the days are colder
I wanna take a train to nowhere
I wanna know that I'll be holding
Your hand tonight
Let's see the world before it burns down
Let's dance until we fall to the ground
I wanna be in the here and now
Looking into your eyes

So why keep listening
to that voice in your head
yeah, that voice in your head
That's telling horror stories
So why don't you
Let me know instead
Yeah, let me know instead
Are you coming with me

Let's meet when the summer's all done
We don't, we don't have to go home
It's just us in the morning light
We don't, we don't have to get things right
'Cause when you hold me I feel alive
It's all, it's all we need tonight
So let's meet when the summer's all done
And I don't have to let you go (We don't, we don't have to let go)

And all the thoughts running through my head
Can't shake the feeling, I'll build it up instead
You make me feel at home anywhere
Give that a chance
I wanna play some video games
We can escape the world in flames
And when we're done I want you to stay
Here in my arms

So will you trust me
And listen to your heart
Yeah, listen to your heart
And throw away the worries
So why don't we
Wish upon a star,
Yeah wish upon a star
Will you be mine?

Let's meet when the summer's all done
We don't, we don't have to go home
It's just us in the morning light
We don't, we don't have to get things right
'Cause when you hold me I feel alive
It's all, it's all we need tonight
So let's meet when the summer's all done
And I don't have to let you go (We don't, we don't have to let go)
