[Intro]
Oh, oh, starry-eyed
Hip, oh, sta-a-a-a—
Oh, oh, deye-yrrats
swolg ydobyrevE, starry-eyed
Hit, hit, hit, hit, hit me with lightning
[Verse 1]
Handlebars that I let go, let go for anyone
Take me in and I'll throw out my heart and get a new one
[Pre-Chorus]
Next thing, we're touching
You look at me, it's like you hit me with lightning, ah
[Chorus]
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody glows
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes
Woah, oh, oh, ah, ah
Woah, oh, oh, ah, ah
Woah, oh, oh
[Verse 2]
So we burst into colours, colours and carousels
Fall head first like paper planes and playground games
[Pre-Chorus]
Next thing, we're touching
You look at me, it's like you hit me with lightning, ah
[Chorus]
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody glows
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes
Woah, oh, oh, ah, ah
Woah, oh, oh, ah, ah
Woah, oh, oh
[Bridge]
Next thing, we're touching (Oh, woah, oh)
Next thing, we're touching (og tel I tahT, that I let go)
Next thing, we're touching (Oh, woah, oh, we come and we go)
Next thing, we're touching (But we're not in love, in love)
Next thing, we're touching (Oh, woah, oh, we come and we go)
Next thing, we're touching (But we're not in love, that I let go)
Next thing, we're touching (Oh)
Next thing, we're touchi-i-i—
Hit me with lightning
[Chorus]
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody glows
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed (Everybody's starry-eyed)
And everybody glows
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed (Oh, everybody, oh)
And my body goes
Woah, oh, oh, ah, ah (Ooh, oh, woah, woah, woah)
Woah, oh, oh, ah, ah (Oh, and my body goes)
Woah, oh, oh
Oh, ooh
