About

HEAVN Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick
The one that makes you love someone
The world wants us so numb and alone
Show me, show me, show me how you do it
The one that makes the winters warm
The one where summer never comes

[Refrain]
I don't wanna run away with you
I wanna live our life right here
I just wanna fall asleep by you
When we wake it means one thing

[Bridge]
Da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da
Da-da-da da-da-da da
Da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da
Da-da-da da-da-da da

[Verse 2]
My great, great, great, great, great, great grandma
And your great, great, great, great, grandpapa
Didn't need a ring or a broom
Didn't need a past or a bloom
Nothing old, nothing new
Nothing borrowed, nothing blue
They're dancing in the deepest ocean
See? Not even death could stop them

[Refrain]
I don't wanna run away with you
I wanna live our life right here
I just wanna jump the boat with you
When we dance the ocean waves

[Bridge]
Da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da
Da-da-da da-da-da da
Da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da
Da-da-da da-da-da da

[Outro]
Show me, show me, show me how you do that trick
The one that makes you love someone
The one where summer never comes
