Full moon just a sticker on the windscreen of my car
Anywhere we go is home, as long as I am where you are
We are sole survivors of a night that puts out romance like raindrops on a fire
Maybe there could be others if the sun was higher
And maybe when we're older we'll look back on all the things we've left behind
But in the meantime, we grow older like saplings in the forest of lost time
Slow down, there's a million sights that we have left to see
We are living in the moment which is a lot to be said for the world today, it seems
And I'll celebrate the way you look at me
There's something special in those eyes of chocolate brown and forest green
And maybe when we're older we will understand the meaning of the world
But in the meantime, we'll adventure and our futures will unfurl
It's us against the world
It's us against the world
It's us against the world
It's us against the world

I just wanna be lost in your eyes again
Swimming through those pools for days on end
A thousand moments felt like 1
Your heartbeat throbbed like a marching drum
We lay side by side in red-curtain light
And dreamt in 2D long into the night
As cities passed across the screen
We fell in love in places we hadn't been
Your breath was crisp in the misty morning air
And the leaves on the ground matched the colour of your hair
Sunlight beckoned through the trees
That sang hymns softly in the breeze
It felt like we were discovering new ground
But we were only half a mile from your house
We could've slipped beneath the ebb and flow of life
So quickly no one would ever have known
And I wish that were true
And I was on my own with you my darling
Us against the world
I'd take you in my arms
And ask you if you'd spend your life with me
I'd take you in my arms
And ask you if you'd spend your life with me
I'll take you to the sunflower fields next June
And we can live the dreams we came up with in your room
Time will stand dead still that day
And the Autumn will seem a world away
But next September begins our years apart
I know that you'll stay with me in my heart
And when we reach the other side
We'll live together 'til the day we die
I know it to be true
That I will spend my life with you my darling
Just us against the world
I'd take you in my arms
And ask you if you'd spend your life with me
I'd take you in my arms
And ask you if you feel the same about me
And all I want is you
It seems a lot to ask, in truth, my darling
With the world against us
I'll take you in my arms
Coz I know you want to spend your life with me
With the world against us
I'll take you in my arms
Coz I know you want to spend your life with me

Silent Disco

I know I'm meant for you coz we slow-dance to faster tunes
Music is all we need to tell each other everything
The weather may be great outside, but how can it compare to your smile?
Silent disco in my room: nothing else I'd rather do
I lie here dreaming of your lips. I know I may be bad at this
But I hear your laughter from across the room, and that is when I know that I love you
I've been building up for 6 weeks
Waiting 'til you see me
And I'll kiss you
The sun goes down, the orange sky hangs above the town
I'm wondering now if all my dreams will come true somehow
But I hear you singing and you're out of tune, and that is when I know that I love you
Nothing compares to being lonely
I'm barking up a tall tree
But what else can I do?
Coz I keep thinking that you're into me
It's driving me insane
But is it true?
Coz we have a connection but I can't break your door down
Maybe I should ask you to dance with me right now
A thousand times I've said the same things over in my head
But when the time came no words came out
Your face takes me to a better place
I dream about your embrace
Awake 'til 2
All night wishing I'm in your life
Nothing else will do
Your face takes me to a better place
I dream about your embrace
Awake 'til 2
I saw the part of you I long for
The part that I would die for
The part that makes you you

I'd like to bathe myself in blood
Of those who put themselves above me
Fought off all the daft clichés
But now my thoughts are stained with you
I try to catch your eye
One man against a thousand armies
I watch through rain and snow
I slept on sticks and stones
I've been dreaming about you
At night I share my secrets with the moon
It seems life has turned its back on me
Sometimes I hug my pillow pretending that it's you
But it'll never feel the same again
I thought I was so good
Forgot the things I should have done
The writing's on the wall
And if the sky were to fall I'd catch it for you
And you'd see what I'd do
Time is the only antidote
To the hole in your life that's shaped like me, I know
And I feel trapped in this moment
If time goes on but I stay here there will be nowhere else for me to go
So I'll make you say my name again
Coz you unthreaded my heart-strings
I always knew that it would end
So this is how it must be instead
You'll get comfortable in time
Your scars will vanish on the outside
But stay with you in the depths of your mind
Coz on the outside you are happy to be mine
