[Verse 1]

My wings are breaking

I'm forgetting how to fly to you

The wind keeps on pushing me down

Resisting against it

Just to try and break right through

Sitting on the frozen moon

Just looking down on you


[Pre-Chorus]

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

Than in your arms tonight

Reaching out for you to see

How much you really mean to me


[Chorus]

Oh, wake up

Can't you see I'm calling out to you?

Oh-oh-oh

These butterflies just keep on coming

And I'll just keep on running 'till I get to you

Oh-oh-oh


[Post-Chorus]

Please, promise me

Oh, please

Don't turn off your light tonight


[Verse 2]

Breathless, I arrived to you

With nothing but a flower

But I picked them one by one

The pеtals left are all I've got

Whilе childly, I wait to see

If he loves me or he loves me not


[Pre-Chorus]

So carelessly, I sing my love to you

Asking where the stars have gone

But you refuse to sing alone


[Chorus]

Oh, wake up

Can't you see I'm calling out to you?

Oh-oh-oh

These butterflies just keep on coming

And I'll just keep on running 'till I get to you

Oh-oh-oh


[Post-Chorus]

Please, promise me

Oh, please

Don't turn off your light tonight

Oh-oh-oh-oh, tonight


[Pre-Chorus]

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

Than in your arms tonight

Reaching out for you to see

How much you really mean to me

So carelessly, I sing my love to you

Asking where the stars have gone

But you refuse to sing alone


[Chorus]

Oh, wake up

Can't you see I'm calling out to you?

Oh-oh-oh

These butterflies just keep on coming

And I'll just keep on running 'till I get to you

Oh-oh-oh

Wake up

Can't you see I'm calling out to you?

Oh-oh-oh

These butterflies just keep on coming

And I'll just keep on running 'till I get to you

Oh-oh-oh


[Post-Chorus]

Please, promise me

Oh, please

Don't turn off your light tonight
