Lyrics:
If we could break the ice…
Like the summer sun
Then flip the world around…
Til everybody’s gone
I’m changing everything…
Til black and white are one
So meet me past the highs…
That everybody’s on…
[1]
Until they’re gone
Til they leave
There’s nobody… just you and me
Until they’re gone
Til they leave
There’s nobody…just you and me
If we can keep it hid…
Like the winter sun…
Then flip the world around..
Til everybody’s gone
Until they’re gone
Til they leave
There’s nobody…just you and me
Until they’re gone
Til they leave
There’s nobody…just you and me
Repeat [1]
