‘Riptide’

Lyrics:

Lyrics:

I was scared of dentists and the dark
I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
Oh, all my friends are turning green
You’re the magician’s assistant in their dreams

Oh
Oh and they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you’re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat ’cause
You’re gonna sing the words wrong

Is this movie that I think you’ll like
This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City
This cowboy’s running from himself
And she’s been living on the highest shelf

Oh
Oh and they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you’re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat ’cause
You’re gonna sing the words wrong

I just wanna, I just wanna know
If you’re gonna, if you’re gonna stay
I just gotta, I just gotta know
I can’t have it, I can’t have it any other way
I swear she’s destined for the screen
Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you’ve ever seen, oh

Lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you’re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat ’cause
You’re gonna sing the words wrong

Oh lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you’re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat ’cause
You’re gonna sing the words wrong

Oh lady, running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you when you’re singing that song and
I got a lump in my throat ’cause
You’re gonna sing the words wrong
I got a lump in my throat because you’re gonna sing the words wrong

‘Light The Sky’

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Stars, they got nothing on us
I don’t think you understand
Let’s go out and do something we’d never do
Cause I feel like I can do anything when

[Pre-Chorus]
My head is spinning and my feet off the ground
And I can’t stop dancing like no one’s around
And yeah, I think we were born to shine

[Chorus]
Cause the stars are dull when they’re compared to you and I
And if people don’t like it then they can close their eyes
Cause we’re not the same and we don’t have to try
Cause we’re brighter than fireflies
We’re gonna light the sky
Oo wa oo oh oh
Oo wa oo oh oh oh
Oo wa oo oh oh
Oo wa oo oh oh oh
Light the sky

[Verse 2]
You and me, we stand out of the crowd
Cause we are not afraid to let our light out
So trust me and just have no doubts
Cause we will be tearing through the clouds

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause my head is spinning and my feet off the ground
And I can’t stop dancing like no one’s around
And yeah, I think we were born to shine

[Chorus]
Cause the stars are dull when they’re compared to you and I
And if people don’t like it then they can close their eyes
Cause we’re not the same and we don’t have to try
Cause we’re brighter than fireflies
We’re gonna light the sky
Oo wa oo ah oh
Oo wa oo ah ah oh
Oo wa oo ah oh
Oo wa oo ah ah oh
Light the sky

[Bridge]
You and me
Me and you
We will shine through
You and me
Me and you
We will shine

[Pre-Chorus]
Cause my head is spinning and my feet off the ground
And I can’t stop dancing like no one’s around
And yeah, I think we were born to shine

[Chorus]
Cause the stars are dull when they’re compared to you and I
And if people don’t like it then they can close their eyes
Cause we’re not the same and we don’t have to try
Cause we’re brighter than fireflies
We’re gonna light the sky
Oo wa oo ah oh
Oo wa oo ah ah oh
Oo wa oo ah oh
Oo wa oo ah ah oh
Light the sky
