Having a dream is too much
She makes her friends feel too at home
She's the star
She's the one
She's in a play tonight
Her shoes glowing very bright
Her shoes glowing very bright
Sometimes I think she gives too much
Sometimes I think she gives too much
Sometimes I think she gives too much
She makes her friends feel too at home
Sometimes I think she gives too much
Sometimes I think she gives too much
She makes her friends feel too wild
Oh what I said, is simply not true
Her love is her gift
She thinks of us as friends
The night, two bears
And in some trees
It made a sound, it's in an early state
I think it was excited
Before it's o'er
Before its energy is over said
This out, the last sound I make it
The light, two bears
And in some trees
It made a sound, that only you can do
It liquefies inside
Before it's o'er
Before its energy is over said
Know that sound
Through that, you can move it
You coolin'
Show! I like to know
Do like me, and ended up, to try
This much, bitter
I'll take this time and love you with it
So much of that goes into a fog
Returns at night, returns to you at night
And by the door, and up by the roof
For there's no friend that
So much of that is
I go in a fair
I go in there, you and me
Don't go in there, affair
Don't go in there
I'll take this time and love you with it
I'll take this time and love you with it
I'm aching in this town
I'll take this time and love you with it
I'll take this time and love you with it
I'm aching in this town, in this town
I'll take this time and love you with it
