The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Where will you go when it's over?

How will you know when it's over?

I know, yeah, I saw you, you know that, right?

Just know that I saw you (I saw you, I saw, I saw)

Where will you go when it's over?

Do you get lost on your own?

I know, yeah, I saw you, you know that, right?

Just know that I saw you (I saw you, I saw, I saw)

Late night, zip ties

Make you want to miss your flight

Flipping through your feelings like a gemini

I'm staring at your dark side

So far, so gone

Standing with a white dress on

Only say you need me when your friends gone home

You're tryna get your mind right

But if I only get one life, this is what I wanna do

And if I only get one life, I wanna live it with you

And if I only had one night, yeah, I'd spend it with you

So if I only get one life, I wanna live it with you

I'm gonna live it with you

Say something like

(It's only you)

It's only you

New wave, riptide

Hoping I can change your life

If you need a second chance, you can take mine

See you in a new light (see you in a new—)

Skintight, cocaine

You don't wanna feel this way

You know I'd do anything to make you stay

I'm pulling all my best lines

But if I only get one life, this is what I wanna do

And if I only get one life, I wanna live it with you

And if I only had one night, yeah, I'd spend it with you

So if I only get one life, I wanna live it with you

Say something like

It's only you

It's only you

Say something like

It’s only you

It’s only you

Where will you go when it's over?

How will you know when it's over?

I know, yeah, I saw you, you know that, right?

Just know that I saw you (I saw you, I saw, I saw)
