lyrics
Catch a glimpse of you while I walk through the airport by myself
Got a sweater on I’ve seen in a few pictures that you’ve sent
I can’t say that I’ve been missing someone I’ve only met once
And the pressure we put on ourselves come right to the forefront and we ask
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up?
My eyes get big and I’m with you
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
And you’re still on my mind
Oh what are we gonna do?
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
Oooooh
What if you drink too much and cheat your way through school
Is that ok?
Bite your nails and move to cigarettes to make it through your day?
But we both feel it that we need to be together every day
How can I go on when I know you exist so far away?
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
My eyes get big and I’m with you
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
And you’re still on my mind
Oh what are we gonna do?
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
Oooooh
Feel something happening
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up?
Got a sweater on I’ve seen in a few pictures that you’ve sent
I can’t say that I’ve been missing someone I’ve only met once
And the pressure we put on ourselves come right to the forefront and we ask
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up?
My eyes get big and I’m with you
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
And you’re still on my mind
Oh what are we gonna do?
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
Oooooh
What if you drink too much and cheat your way through school
Is that ok?
Bite your nails and move to cigarettes to make it through your day?
But we both feel it that we need to be together every day
How can I go on when I know you exist so far away?
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
My eyes get big and I’m with you
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
And you’re still on my mind
Oh what are we gonna do?
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
Oooooh
Feel something happening
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up?
