[Verse 1]
All the stardust in you has been there before time
And when I get to see you, the glow slips in my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
That's how I float when you're near, earth slows
And I get a feeling like I'm comin' up from underwater
[Chorus]
'Cause it's starlight whenever you're around me
Starlight, whenever we hang out
Starlight, a hundred sparks surround me
Starlight, I wanna slow it down, but I can't, no
[Verse 2]
All the windows open, a breeze comes through the room
And carries me out gently, up towards the Moon
[Pre-Chorus]
That's how I float when you're near, it slows
And I get a feeling likе I'm comin' up from underwater
[Chorus]
'Cause it's starlight whеnever you're around me
Starlight, whenever we hang out
Starlight, a hundred sparks surround me
Starlight, I wanna slow it down, but I can't
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
'Cause it's starlight whenever you're around me
Starlight, whenever we hang out
Starlight, a hundred sparks around
Starlight, I wanna slow it down, but I can't
