[Chorus: Selena Gomez]
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
[Verse 1: Selena Gomez]
I'm slippin' down a chain reaction
And here I go, here I go, here I go, go
And once again, I'm yours in fractions
It takes me down, pulls me down, pulls me down low
[Pre-Chorus: Selena Gomez]
Honey, it's rainin' tonight
But storms always have an eye, have an eye
Tell me your cover tonight
Or tell me lies, tell me lies, lies, lies...
[Chorus: Selena Gomez]
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me, we're the same force
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
[Drop]
(I want you)
(I want you)
[Chorus]
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
[Verse 2: Selena Gomez]
I'm better under your reflection
But did you know, did you know, did you know, know
That's anybody else that's met ya
It's all the same, all the same, all the same glow
[Pre-Chorus: Selena Gomez]
Honey, it's rainin' tonight
But storms always have an eye, have an eye
Tell me your cover tonight
Or tell me lies, tell me lies, lies, lies...
[Chorus: Selena Gomez]
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me, we're the same force
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours
You and me run the same course
[Build]
(Course, course, course, course)
(Course, course, course, course)
You and me run the same course
[Drop]
(I want you)
(I want you)
[Chorus: Selena Gomez]
I want you to know that it's our time
You and me bleed the same light
I want you to know that I'm all yours (La-la-la)
You and me run the same course
