It's funny to person,
She said while holding your chin up,
And hurting is fine if it's real,
Fine if it's real,
It's fine if it's real,
It's fine to swing like trees in the wind
From left to right and back,
'Cause the party is yet to begin,
It's yet to begin,
The party is yet to begin,
And hurting is fine if it's real,
Fine if it's real,
It's fine if it's real,
It's fine.
When she sings
And the moves the makes
Seems to remind of silence
For the way she calms you down,
A parade runs through my veins.
And she smiles
And the fears you have
Vanish into kaleidoscopes
That spin around you.
The plans we have made,
The times we have failed,
I'm glad you understand
That when the devil knocks at your door,
You open the door,
There's nothing else you can do
but the things that help making you feel
You're one,
Unmistakeable one,
'Cause the party is yet to begin,
Yet to begin,
The party is yet to begin.
And hurting is fine if it's real,
Fine if it's real,
It's fine if it's real,
It's fine.
When she sings
And the moves the makes
Seems to remind of silence
For the way she calms you down,
A parade runs through my veins.
And she smiles
And the fears you have
Vanish into kaleidoscopes
That spin around
and move around you.
