[Verse 1]
You by the light
Is the greatest find
In a world full of wrong
You're the thing that's right

Finally made it through the lonely
To the other side

[Chorus]
You set it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark
And I-I-I'm in love
And I-I-I'm terrified
For the first time
And the last time
In my only life

[Verse 2]
This could be good
It's already better than that
And nothing's worse
Than knowing you're holding back

I could be all that you need(ed)
If you let me try

[Chorus]
You set it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark
And I-I-I'm in love
And I-I-I'm terrified
For the first time
And the last time
In my only life

[Bridge]
I only said it cause I mean it
I only mean it cause it's true
So don't you doubt/tear/dare what I've been dreaming
Cause it fills/keeps me up and holds me close
Whenever I'm without you

[Chorus]
You set it again, my heart's in motion
Every word feels like a shooting star
I'm at the edge of my emotions
Watching the shadows burning in the dark
And I-I-I'm in love
And I-I-I'm terrified
For the first time
And the last time
In my only life
