lyrics

Verse 1
You are a shining star
Rushing through the sky
Crashing down on me
Asking me who I want to be

Pre-Chorus 1
I don’t know now
I don’t feel the need to know

Verse 2
You think you are a shining star
Shining bright from afar
Crashing down on me
Asking me who you want to be

Pre-Chorus 2
I don’t know now
I don’t feel the need to know
So please leave me
Please leave me be

Chorus 1
I was blinded for far too long (for far too long)
By the way your light has shown (your light has shown)
Not everything I do is wrong (is wrong)
Shining bright doesn’t mean you’ve won

Verse 3
Never were a shining star
Just held back on your dark
Crashing down on me
Asking me what we’ll be

Pre-Chorus 3
I don’t know now
I don’t feel the need to know

Chorus 2
I was blinded for far too long (for far too long)
By the way your light has shown (your light has shown)
Not everything I do is wrong (is wrong)
Shining bright doesn’t mean you’ve won

Pre-Chorus 4
I don’t know now
I don’t feel the need to know
So please leave me
Please leave me be

Chorus 3
I was blinded for far too long (for far too long)
By the way your light has shown (your light has shown)
Not everything I do is wrong (is wrong)
Shining bright doesn’t mean you’ve won
