Lyrics

[Intro]
If you're ready for love, if you're ready for love
If you're ready for love, if you're ready for love
If you're ready for love, if you're ready for love
If you're ready for love
[Chorus]
Future, future, love, love, future
Future, future, love, love, future
Future, future, love, love, future
Future, future, love, love, future
[Verse 1]
The night is dark and full of terror
The air is thick with helicopters
People marching, cops are swarming
The city's on fire, and the sirens are screaming
[Verse 2]
You and I, we have a chance
We could leave this place and rewrite our romance
Let's go dancing, not talk for a while
The sky's so beautiful, the stars are wild
[Chorus]
Future, future, love, love, future
Future, future, love, love, future
[Verse 3]
There is no future that can't be designed
With some imagination and a beautiful mind
Did I disgrace myself, bring shame to the flock?
I was sick with resentment, couldn't help myself
[Verse 4]
The Earth is shaking, I want to go home
The clock is ticking, we'll go it alone
The rest is history, a host of mistakes
A strange turn of events, an unfortunate mess
[Chorus]
Future, future, love, love, future
Future, future, love, love, future
[Refrain]
If you're ready for love, if you're ready for love
If you're ready for love, if you're ready for love
[Refrain]
If you're ready for love, if you're ready for love
If you're ready for love, if you're ready for love
If you're ready for love, if you're ready for love
If you're ready for love, if you're ready for love
If you're ready for love
[Chorus]
Future, future, love, love, future
Future, future, love, love, future
Future, future, love, love, future
Future, future, love, love, future
Future, future, love, love, future
[Outro]
Future, future, love, love, future
