[Chorus: Kanye West, Bon Iver & Caroline Shaw]
Uh, every time (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
Every time (Ooh)
And the stars will align (Every time)
You ain't lyin' (Ooh-ooh)
You ain't lyin' (Ooh-ooh), you ain't lyin' (Ooh)
You gon' take me to the light (Every time, ah)
Every time, every time, every time
[Verse 1: Francis and the Lights & Bon Iver]
Ooh, the fifth dimension
You can see the time
It don't look aligned
Ain't no other side
Tree ain't gotta listen (Listen)
Tree ain't got an eye (Eye)
It can feel the vibe (Vibe)
It can touch the sky
What a sense of balance (Balance)
Tree's catchin' fire (He'll be last)
What a way to die
[Chorus: Kanye West, Bon Iver & Caroline Shaw & Chance the Rapper]
And you still take me to the light every time (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
You still take me to the light (Every time)
It seem like our stars align (Every time)
You ain't lyin' (Ooh-ooh)
You ain't lyin' (Ooh-ooh), you ain't lyin' (Ooh)
You gon' take me to the light (Every time, ah)
Every time, every time, every time
[Verse 2: Chance the Rapper, Francis and the Lights & Bon Iver]
You ain't lyin'
Heaven is a ride, I just wanna ride
I just wanna try somethin' new tonight
Heaven is a flight, don't leave me outside (Ooh)
Take me every time, every time
It's a giant water slide, don't you hang me out to dry
Ooh, the first dimension
You ain't gotta eye
Ain't no left or right (He'll be last)
Too fast from the line
[Chorus: Kanye West, Bon Iver & Caroline Shaw & Chance the Rapper]
And you still take me to the light every time (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
You still take me to the light (Ooh, every time)
It seem like our stars align (Every time)
You ain't lyin' (Ooh-ooh)
You ain't lyin' (Ooh-ooh), you ain't lyin' (Ooh)
You gon' take me to the light (Every time, ah)
Every time, take me
Every time, take me
Time
[Bridge: Francis and the Lights, Bon Iver & Kanye West]
Darlin', in the first dimension
You ain't gotta lie
You don't have to worry
Darlin', ain't nobody decidin'
If you can set the distance
Keep it personal
You can make it stop
Keep it personal
And the stars, they align
Keep 'em guessin'
Take me (Take me to the), take me to the
[Chorus: Kanye West, Bon Iver & Caroline Shaw]
And you still take me to the light (Every time, Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh)
You still take me to the light (Every time)
It seem like our stars align (Every time)
You ain't lyin' (Ooh-ooh, you ain't lyin')
You ain't lyin' (Ooh-ooh, you ain't lyin')
You ain't lyin' (Ooh)
You gon' take me to the light (Every time, ah)
Every time, every time, every time
