Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I get swept away
When I think of you
Take me to that place
Where it's control I lose
[Verse 2]
I'm soothed by you
You take it all away
I lose to you
Surrendered at the start of the game
[Verse 3]
I'll never deceive
Right here, I'll always be
[Verse 4]
Hide away
I hide away with you
I let the world just slip away
And I'm left with you
[Verse 5]
You light up the sky
Unshadow the moon
The moments we share
Always end too soon
[Verse 6]
Part of you stays a while
Even when you're far away
How, so far away
Yet you feel so near?
Written by: Jamie Smith, Oliver Sim, Romy Madley Croft
