[Verse 1]
AHeaven help me
My mind Gchanges like the Dwind
APlease excuse me
I don't Gknow where to Dbegin
But DI
Didn't think I cared
AI could be your friend
GBut I'm unprepared
Oh, AI've never felt like Dthis
DI was unaware
AYou were lighting flares
GNow I'm running scared
Oh, Ahow did it come to Emthis?
[Pre-Chorus]
EmYou know I've Gnever
Been so Dlonely on my Aown
And it Emshows
'Cause I don't Gsee you
Like I Dused to
Now AI'm going back on the things that I know
[Chorus]
DOh
All my Anights
Taste like Ggold
Yeah, when I'm Awith you
It's like everything Dglows
And all my Adays
We can lay Glow
Yeah, when we're Awaking up
We're waking up Dslow
[Verse 2]
DI can rearrange
AWould you do the same?
GI don't wanna change
ABut you're just too good to Dmiss
D'Cause I'm intertwined
AAnd I'm running blind
GBut I don't mind
AI'm so glad it came to Emthis
[Pre-Chorus]
EmYou know I've Gnever
Been so Dlonely on my Aown
And it Emshows
'Cause I don't Gsee ya
Like I Dused to
Now AI'm going back on the things that I know
[Chorus]
DOh
All my Anights
Taste like Ggold
Yeah, when I'm Awith you
It's like everything Dglows
And all my Adays
We can lay lGow
Yeah, when we're Awaking up
We're waking up Dslow
[Post-Chorus]
DIt's a little bit clearer Anow
I love you like the sun came Gout
Oh
We're Awaking up
We're waking up Dslow
It's like I never had a Adoubt
I love you like the sun came Gout
Oh
We're Awaking up
We're waking up
[Bridge]
DLike I told ya
ADon't look backwards
Em'Cause now I see you here
GNothing else matters
DLike I told ya
ADon't look backwards
Em'Cause now I see you here
I'm going back on the things that I know
[Chorus]
DOh
All my Anights
Taste like Ggold

Yeah, when we're Awaking up
We're waking up Dslow
[Post-Chorus]
It's a little bit clearer Anow
I love you like the sun came Gout
Oh
We're Awaking up
We're waking up Dslow
It's like I never had a Adoubt
I love you like the sun came Gout
