lyrics

Get hot
Get too close to the flame
Wild open space
Talk like an open book
Sign me up
Got no time, to take a picture
I'll remember someday
All the chances we took

We're so close
To something better left unknown
We're so close
To something better left unknown

I can feel it in my bones

Gimme sympathy
After all this is gone
Who'd you rather be?
The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?
Oh seriously, you're gonna make mistakes you're young
Come on baby play me something like "Here Comes The Sun"
Come on baby play me something like "Here Comes The Sun"

Don't go
Stay with the all unknown
Stay away from the hooks
All the chances we took

We're so close
To something better left unknown
We're so close
To something better left unknown

I can feel it in my bones

Gimme sympathy
After all this is gone
Who'd you rather be?
The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?
Oh seriously, you're gonna make mistakes you're young
Come on baby play me something like "Here Comes The Sun"

Gimme Sympathy
After all this is gone
Who'd you rather be?
The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?
Oh seriously, you're gonna make mistakes you're young
Come on baby play me something like "Here Comes The Sun"

Come on baby play me something like "Here Comes The Sun"
