  • I remember us alone
    Waiting for the light to go
    Don't you feel that hunger
    I've got, so many secrets to show
    When I saw you on that stage
    I shiver with the look you gave
    Don't you hear that rhythm, can you
    Show me how we can escape

    (Ooh oh oh oh, ooh oh oh ooh)
    I was biting my tongue
    I was trying to hide
    (Ooh oh oh oh, ooh oh oh ooh)
    I'll forget what I've done
    I'll be redefined

    It's shaking the sky
    And I'm following lightning
    I'll recover if you keep me alive
    Don't leave me behind
    Can you see me I'm shining
    And it's you that I've been waiting to find
    I'm holding it all tonight
    I'm folding it all tonight
    You know that you make it shine
    And it's you that I've been waiting to find
    I'm holding it all tonight
    I'm folding it all tonight
    You know that you make it shine
    It's you that I've been waiting to find

    Now that we can hear that sound
    Now that you can hold me down
    You can pull me under
    You can raise everything to the ground
    Everything I can arrange,
    Every part of me you change
    Just hold me together, tell me
    You'll always want me to stay

    (Ooh oh oh oh, oh oh oh ooh)
    I was biting my tongue
    I was trying to hide
    (Ooh oh oh oh, oh oh oh ooh)
    I'll forget what I've done
    I'll be redefined

    It's shaking the sky
    And I'm following lightning
    I'll recover if you keep me alive
    Don't leave me behind
    Can you see me I'm shining
    And it's you that I've been waiting to find

    I wanna be the one you steal
    I wanna be the one you shield
    I wanna be the one
    That your love, that your love
    Can heal
    I wanna be the one you steal
    I wanna be the one you shield
    I wanna be the one
    That you'll love, that you'll love

    It's shaking the sky
    And I'm following lightning
    I'll recover if you keep me alive
    Don't leave me behind
    Can you see me I'm shining
    And it's you that I've been waiting to find
    I'm holding it all tonight
    I'm folding it all tonight

    You know that you make it shine
    It's you that I've be waiting to find
    I'm holding it all tonight
    I'm folding it all tonight
    You know that you make it shine
    It's you that I've be waiting to find
    It's you that I've be waiting to find
    It's you that I've been waiting to find Writer/s: Greg Kurstin, Michael Thomas Goldsworthy, Oliver Alexander Thornton, Resul Emre Turkmen
