Take all your chances while you canNever know when they'll pass you byLike a sum the mathematician cannot solveLike me trying my hardest to explain It's all about your cries and kissesThose first steps that I can't calculateI need some more of you to take me over If I had the chance to start againThen you would be the one I'd come and findLike the poster of Berlin on my wallMaybe there's a chance our walls might fall It's all about your cries and kissesThose first steps that I can't calculateI need some more of you to take me over It's all about your cries and kissesThose first steps that I can't calculateI need some more of you to take me overI've no idea 'causeI can't calculateHow to start againHow to start againHow to start againHow to start againIt's all about you

Sun got stuck, as it's making its way back downWe find ourselves, in a familiar part of townAnd all that I've seen means nothing to me, without you So when I see you next we'll make the most of itTell the sun to start moving againThe taste of your kiss I've still got on my lipsAnd I'll take you there with me Head crashed down, air condition myself to sleepA great night out, that will continue to the end of the weekAnd all that I've seen means nothing to me, without you So when I see you next we'll make the most of itTell the sun to start moving againThe taste of your kiss I've still got on my lipsAnd I'll take you there with me It's you and me connected to a satelliteIt's you and me and love through a machineIt's you and me connected to a satelliteIt's you and me and love through a machine So when I see you next we'll make the most of itTell the sun to start moving againThe taste of your kiss I've still got on my lipsAnd I'll take you there with me

This European airIt always warms my faceI wish I could buy some I will bring you storiesAnd bleary eyed photosLike a regular tourist We don't go breaking downI feel like nothing ever willWe don't go breaking downI feel like nothing Suitcases down our streetAre rolling once againI roll away with them 5 days inside Zoo YorkTo loose myself with friends I'm nowhere without you We don't go breaking downI feel like nothing ever willWe don't go breaking downI feel like nothing ever willWe don't go breaking downI feel like nothing Just want to be with you my babyJust want to be with you my babyJust want to be with you my babyJust want to be with you my baby I'm counting up the cost of timeAnd we'll embrace our time awayWe cannot save ourselves aloneOr rely on a mobile phone

Out of energyI don't know what to do with myselfMade it eventuallyAnd now I'm resting on the very last breath All I needed was this oneTo get me back on my wayIt wasn't long before I realisedThere was no time to wasteThere was soul all around meEverybody let goIt wasn't long before we realisedThere was no time to waste Like I'm eleven againI was the highest kid in the worldReached a point with no endJust looking out so I can take it all in All I needed was this oneTo get me back on my wayIt wasn't long before I realisedThere was no time to wasteThere was soul all around meEverybody let goIt wasn't long before we realisedThere was no time to wasteAll I needed was this oneTo get me back on my wayIt wasn't long before I realisedThere was no time to waste I thank you for soulNo point unless you got soulThis world has got to have soulLooking around for your soulDigging down to your soulI found out you got soulHolding out all your soulLifting up all your soulI thank you for soul

Switch on the light, between each otherElevated to your side, now I'm nervousIt's time to tell you honestly, so we can alter history You are, first on my listWhen everything around is gone I knowYou are, first on my listWhen everything is shown up for what it is Plastic flowers that fight for colourShadows floating on the ground, that always followLike international acclaim, it comes and goes never the same You are, first on my listWhen everything around is gone I knowYou are, first on my listWhen everything is shown up for what it is And I will run with itAnd sunlight will break into my eyesAnd it seems like you plugged the world in'Cause sunlight is streaming from your eyes You are, first on my listWhen everything around is gone I knowYou are, first on my listWhen everything is shown up for what it is Let's take our time, it won't change over nightWe got a chance we didn't have beforeLet's take our time, it won't change over nightWe got a chance we didn't have before You are, first on my listWhen everything around is gone I knowYou are, first on my listWhen everything is shown up for what it is
