It’s quarter past three on New Year’s Eve But it could be any day from the last few years I've been skating on ice Fighting my vices, yeah I’ve been close to the edge More times than I could forget But today is the beginning of the end For every time I stole your light In amongst a drunken night Talking about our hopes and dreams Getting locked out without a key I've had enough of fleeting fun And lying about the things I’ve done I’m ready to be better now, better now I want to make it better now, better now I’m ready to be better now, better now I want to make it better now, better now And I'll always remember the first time we met You were with somebody else His name is on the tip of my tongue but I forget But that was then and somehow I’m the one that you're with now And I don’t want this love to ever end For every time I stole your light In amongst a drunken night Talking about our hopes and dreams Getting locked out without a key I've had enough of fleeting fun And lying about the things I’ve done I’m ready to be better now, better now I want to make it better now, better now I’m ready to be better now, better now I want to make it better now, better now And I poured my heart out into a coffee cup For every time I thought, I thought I fucked it up But that was then and somehow I’m the one that you're with now And I don’t want this love to ever end I’m ready to be better now, better now I want to make it better now, better now I’m ready to be better now, better now I want to make it better now, better now

Monsters 03:38
I know you were scared of the monsters Hiding under the bed  Alone and afraid of the darkness  Lying there holding your breath Counting the stars on the ceiling Can’t have been older than ten  How could you know it was all make believe back then? That the monsters ain’t real, there’s no wolves in the night  No ones coming for you, you are safe close your eyes  It’s all just lies, nothing but scary tales It’s gonna be alright Ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh It’s gonna be alright  Ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh What if I told you your demons  Would someday become your friends  There’s wisdom to find in the darkness So honey no need to be scared  So count all the stars on the ceiling  Then start all over again  It might take a few rounds but you’ll figure it out in the end  Coz the monsters ain’t real there’s no wolves in the night  No ones coming for you you are safe close your eyes  It’s all just lies, nothing but scary tales It’s gonna be alright Ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh It’s gonna be alright  Ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh Heaven’s on earth and hell is all in your head How I wish that I could have told you that back then That the monsters ain’t real there’s no wolves in the night  No ones coming for you you are safe close your eyes  It’s all just lies, nothing but scary tales It’s gonna be alright Ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh It’s gonna be alright  Ooh ooh ooh ooh oooh Heaven’s on earth and hell is all in your head How I wish that I could have told you that back then You’re gonna be just fine  You’re gonna be just fine

Hey now Amy Jane don't you cry I’m no good at goodbyes I know you love me, you don’t wanna hurt me  But you and me just ain’t right  It was hard for me to take at the start To admit we were growing apart Just let me say this one last time before you go  I just want you to smile  Put your hand on your heart Tell me he loves you and he ain’t gonna hurt you  Coz you got a beautiful heart  I just want you to know  Even though it was hard to let go  Just let me say this one last time before you go You got a beautiful soul  That was you throwing caution to the wind I never thought that you’d risk everything  Guess I wasn’t listening when your heart was speaking Now I see you leaving  And I know it’s the right thing to do  I just want you to smile  Put your hand on your heart Tell me he loves you and he ain’t gonna hurt you  Coz you got a beautiful heart  I just want you to know  Even though it was hard to let go  Just let me say this one last time before you go I know it’s the right thing to do  But that don’t make it easy, don’t make it any easier no  All the things we’ve been through It’s hard to get over, to get over you I just want you to smile  Put your hand on your heart Tell me he loves you and he ain’t gonna hurt you  Coz you got a beautiful heart  I just want you to know  Even though it was hard to let go  Just let me say this one last time before you go You got a beautiful soul  You beautiful soul  I just want you to smile  Put your hand on your heart Tell me he loves you and he ain’t gonna hurt you  Coz you got a beautiful soul

Magic 03:03
It’s in your bloodstream right to your bones  It’s been lying in wait since the day that you were born  It was there in the stories, there when you were a child  I love how you remind me to keep running wild  Until magic is a beautiful habit  I can feel it, I’m coming alive  And I love it (and I love it)  The way you tell me I got this (the way you tell me I got this)  I know I’ve told you a thousand times  I’m gonna tell you one more time  All, all, all of your magic All, all, all of your magic (I want all your magic)  All, all, all of your magic All, all, all of your magic  You’re a force of nature, you’re a wild queen  I don’t even know where to start, where to begin, no  Yeah you got me on the ropes, yeah you win  Oh darling, teach me how you swim  Until magic is a beautiful habit  I can feel it, I’m coming alive  And I love it (and I love it)  The way you tell me I got this (the way you tell me I got this)  I know I’ve told you a thousand times  I’m gonna tell you one more time  All, all, all of your magic All, all, all of your magic (I want all your magic)  All, all, all of your magic All, all, all of your magic  Your magic all that magic  It’s a feeling I think I got it now  Your magic all that magic  Its a feeling, all I need is your  Magic it’s a beautiful habit (all, all, all of your magic)  I can feel it I’m coming alive (all, all, all of your magic)  And I love it the way you tell me I got this (all, all, all of your magic)  I know I’ve told you a thousand times  I’m gonna tell you one more

I think you're really good for me, maybe perfect The way you laugh at my jokes makes me wanna take you to bed (oh) When I’m with you I feel like I could be a lion king Everything’s better when it’s you and me  God damn, does that mean I’ve gotta spend the rest of my life with you? God damn, does that mean you’re the one that I’ve been trying to find for years? God damn, does that mean that you love me? God damn, I’m happy  I think you’re really into me and I like it You make me wanna love myself again  When you tell me your deepest thoughts when you let me in I feel like I can do anything  God damn, does that mean I’ve gotta spend the rest of my life with you? God damn, does that mean you’re the one that I’ve been trying to find for years? God damn, does that mean that you love me? God damn, I’m happy  And I guess I’ll have to give you a key to my house now Maybe we could even share a Netflix account  And I’ll empty out a draw, so there’s a space for your things, oooh God damn, does that mean I’ve gotta spend the rest of my life with you? God damn, does that mean you’re the one that I’ve been trying to find for years? God damn, does that mean that you love me? God damn, I’m happy

When you’re down and out of luck Feeling like you’ve had enough Doing all that you can Just trying to make ends meet Swimming through stormy seas Sinking in the quicksand You’re working hard, to the bone, to the limit You’re living life in the passenger’s seat And I know it’s hard and you might not believe it But somewhere there’s a plan for you Just gotta let the sun shine Gotta let it happen baby If you let it happen I know there’ll be good times Somewhere there’s a plan for you (You might not believe it) Somewhere there’s a plan Somewhere there’s a plan (You might not believe it) Somewhere there’s a plan Somewhere there’s a plan (You might not believe it) When you’re feeling out of touch Like you’ve lost a little love Just know that I understand Let this melody from my head Take you somewhere else instead ‘Cause baby I know You’re working hard, to the bone, to the limit You’re living life in the passenger’s seat And I know it’s hard and you might not believe it But somewhere there’s a plan for you Just gotta let the sun shine Gotta let it happen baby If you let it happen I know there’ll be good times I promise you, I promise if you let the sun shine If you let it happen baby Gotta let it happen I know there’ll be good times Somewhere there’s a plan for you And I know we’ve all got our problems You’ve got yours and I’ve got mine Gotta learn to let go and grow through the hard times ‘Cause baby I know You’re working hard, to the bone, to the limit You’re living life in the passenger’s seat And I know it’s hard and you might not believe it But somewhere there’s a plan for you Just gotta let the sun shine Gotta let it happen baby If you let it happen I know there’ll be good times Somewhere there’s a plan for you (You might not believe it) Somewhere there’s a plan Somewhere there’s a plan (You might not believe it) Somewhere there’s a plan Somewhere there’s a plan (You might not believe it)

Let me drop my guard You can take control, I know how it feels Holding your soul in the heat of the moment I know it’s real But now I wanna just let go Will you hold me? Feel the way it feels babe To control me Put your hands on my heart You can leave your mark on me ‘Cause baby I am yours Come into the dark with me Baby make me yours (Make me yours, make me yours) (Make me yours, make me yours) Baby make me yours (Make me yours, make me yours) (Make me yours, make me yours) Honey you don’t know The depths that I would go for you right now No lie Holding the pose, as I melt on the floor You’re on fire tonight Now I wanna see you glow Will you show me?

I've got an ego And it informs a lot of what I do I’ve dated girls in the past just to make me look good When I go out on the town But that feels like a long time ago now Almost another lifetime somehow But that’s just me And I’m coming clean I don’t wanna grow old alone  To lose myself, does someone know How to be happy How to be happy I’ve got a conscious that I don’t always listen to I got lost in a hollow, helpless moment I know that I let you down I guess that I should probably go now And let you try and deal with it somehow But that’s just me And I’m coming clean I don’t wanna grow old alone To lose myself does someone know How to be happy How to be happy Sometimes I lie awake when I’m bed And I think about all my mistakes And your voice in my head Saying I’m never gonna get it right Please tell me that I’ve still got a chance A chance to be happy I don’t wanna grow old alone To lose myself, does someone know How to be happy How to be happy Does someone know How be to happy How to be happy

Power 03:29
I feel like Beethoven, wanna play for hours On a piano in the basement where I taught myself To feel in the moment, to speak my truth To open up my heart, I got nothing to lose I got a little bit scared back there, oooh I’ve got the deepest fear That I might be powerful like the wildest animal I want the world to know That I am so powerful when I’m the wildest animal Power, power, I wanna feel that Power, power, I wanna feel that Power, power, I wanna feel the rush Listening to Bowie on a 45 Got Major Tom keeping my dreams alive A drop of whisky, a toast to my old friend in the sky Jupiter, I got a little bit scared back there, oooh I’ve got the deepest fear That I might be powerful like the wildest animal I want the world to know That I am so powerful when I’m the wildest animal Power, power, I wanna feel that Power, power, I wanna feel that Power, power, I wanna feel the rush When it comes, when it comes to me Like the sound of a symphony Calling my name What if I get it wrong? What if I’m not the one? Tell me I don’t need to be afraid Coz I’ve got the deepest fear That I might be powerful like the wildest animal I want the world to know That I am so powerful when I’m the wildest animal Power, power, I wanna feel that Power, power, I wanna feel that Power, power, I wanna feel the rush Power, power, I wanna feel that Power, power, I wanna feel that Power, power, I wanna feel the rush

You always tell me that I’m good enough And I’m starting to believe your love Could send me over the edge With a little confidence Life is only what you make of it Here I am right in the thick of it On my way, come what may And I’ll go down with this ship Like I do almost every single day And I’ll do it again and again Till I take my rightful place I threw my money down a wishing well I bet my life with all I had to sell And oh my god Is that all you got? For all that hope that I tried to hide For all that love that I kept inside No you can’t fib a fibber, no And I’ll go down with this ship Like I do almost every single day And I’ll do it again and again Till I take my rightful place Oooh I’ll never stop dreaming  Oooh I’ll never give in  And I’ll go down with this ship Like I do almost every single day And I’ll do it again and again Till I take my rightful place  Oooh I’ll never stop dreaming  Oooh I’ll never give in

Up and down, that’s the way life goes I saw a man in the street with a hat at his feet Singing that song that everyone knows The sweetest sound that I’ve ever known The one that hits you like the girl in the picture With a smile that she only shows… If you’re lucky Coz I’ve been lucky I’ve loved and I’ve lost And I know what it means to survive You’re not alone, no, no Through the highs and the lows Get lost in the moment with someone who’s feeling it too Someone who feels just like you ‘Round and ‘round, the hand it goes And they stand in a circle as we find our purpose And watch as we beg to defy If you’re looking Coz I’ve been looking For the grace in the moment In the beauty before our eyes You’re not alone, no, no Through the highs and the lows Get lost in the moment with someone who’s feeling it too You’re not alone, no, no We live and we grow Get lost in the moment with someone who’s feeling it too You’re not alone, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Get lost in the moment Lost in the moment with you You’re not alone, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Get lost in the moment Lost in the moment with you If you’re lucky Coz I’ve been lucky I’ve loved and I’ve lost And I know what it means to survive You’re not alone, no, no Through the highs and the lows Get lost in the moment with someone who’s feeling it too Someone who feels just like you You’re not alone, no, no We live and we grow Get lost in the moment with someone who’s feeling it too Someone who feels just like you Someone who feels just like you Oh, someone who feels just like you
