You shake me up loud, make me
Wait for it
Wait till I can't wait no more

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Round and around

I can't tell right
I can't tell wrong from right
I can't wait till you lie
[Chorus 1]
When it burns, it’s light
Eyes in the dark, hope it's light

[Verse 2]
Every storm that you

I keep my calm through the night

Lied to me
You eat your cake when you like
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I am your game
But you're playing the game too slow
Say what you like
But I can't tell wrong from right
And I can't wait till you lie
[Chorus 2]
When it burns, it’s light
Eyes in the dark, hope it's light
When it burns, it’s light
Eyes in the dark, hope it's light
When it burns, it’s light
Eyes in the dark hope, it's light
When it burns, it’s light
Eyes in the dark hope, it's light
