lyrics

did you ever realise, the starry night sky
like the sunrise, but pure, navy blue
wanna take you with me, on a journey
as we uncover the secrets of the moon

we can dance for hours, I've got superpowers
I can see your aura, glowing in the room
it's like a fever, weeks can leave you bitter
but this feeling gets me nearer to shooting for the moon

I look out this window, the city sleeps like you
I go to dial your number, thinking
You're nocturnal too
I say a night out lover, the morning will come by soon
Just be a butterfly then fly back to your
fly back to your room

Hold me close inside those wings like only a butterfly could
kaleidoscopic city sky
and they say butterflies only live for two or three days
but we're not afraid to die

I look out this window, it's beautiful like you
I go to dial your number, but you never want the truth
I say a night out lover, the morning will come by soon
just be a butterfly then fly back to your,
fly back to your room
