Original lyrics
I had a bad habit of missing lovers past My brother used to call it, "Eating out of the trash" It's never gonna last I thought my house was haunted, I used to live with ghosts And all the perfect couples said, "When you know, you know" And, "When you don't, you don't" And all of the foes, and all of the friends (Ha, ha) They've seen it before, they'll see it again (Ha, ha) Life is a song, it ends when it ends I was wrong But my mama told me It's alright You were dancing through the lightning strikes Sleepless in the onyx night But now the sky is opalite Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, my Lord Never met no one likе you before You had to make your own sunshinе But now the sky is opalite Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You couldn't understand it, why you felt alone You were in it for real, she was in her phone And you were just a pose And don't we try to love love? (Love love) We give it all we got (Give it all we got) You finally left the table (Uh-uh), and what a simple thought You're starving 'til you're not And all of the foes and all of the friends (Ha, ha) Have messed up before, they'll mess up again (Ha, ha) Life is a song, it ends when it ends You move on And that's when I told you It's alright You were dancing through the lightning strikes Sleepless in the onyx night But now the sky is opalite Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, my Lord Never met no one like you before You had to make your own sunshine But now the sky is opalite Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh This is just a storm inside a teacup But shelter here with me, my love Thunder like a drum This life will beat you up, up, up, up This is just a temporary speed bump But failure brings you freedom And I can bring you love, love, love, love, love Don't you sweat it, baby It's alright You were dancing through the lightning strikes Oh, so sleepless in the onyx night But now the sky is opalite Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh, my Lord Never met no one like you before (No) You had to make your own sunshine But now the sky is opalite Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
