Lyrics

[Intro]
Calm down, darling
Don't take me too hard
[Verse 1]
Please come back soon
Sooner than you want to
It's the only thing in this whole world
That would please me
[Verse 2]
I know it's selfish
But you're the sun now
And it's a big job
One you didn't apply for
But maybe you want this too?
Do I look like the sun to you?
Do I blaze freckles onto your face?
I bet, I bet, I bet I do
[Verse 3]
I'm a meteor shattering around you
And I'm sorry
But I've become a solar system
Since I found you
[Verse 4]
I'm an eruption
A wreck of possibilities
A volatility of stars
My clothes can't hold together
And I know I can't burn this bright forever
[Verse 5]
So just stay till the end of the fireworks show
There's no way to know what will happen
But it's for you and me
And I can live with that
Whether or not you leave
So please
Don't be afraid of me or my love
So please
Don't be afraid of me or my love
