New wave, riptide
Hoping I can change your life
If you need a second chance, you can take mine
See you in a new light (See you in a new—)
Skintight, cocaine
You don't wanna feel this way
You know I'd do anything to make you stay
I'm pulling out my best lines

Chorus:
But if I only get one life, this is what I wanna do
And if I only get one life, I wanna live it with you
And if I only have one night, yeah, I'd spend it with you
So if I only get one life, I wanna live it with you
Say something like

It's only you
It's only you
Say something like
It’s only you
It’s only you

Where will you go when it's over?
Who will you know when it's over?
I know, yeah, I saw you, you know that, right?
Just know that I saw you (I saw you, I saw, I saw)
