Lyrics

People Like Us

 
I feel the sunrise on your face
As you're standing by the window
Feel my hand wrapped 'round your waist
As you light your cigarette
 
And it looks just like a scene
From an old Italian movie
And it feels like we're unique
But you know it's playing
 
All around the world
All around the world
People like you and me falling in love
 
All around the world
All around the world
People like you and me can't get enough
 
And then you're writing out our names
In lipstick on the mirror
And you dance towards the bed
With a little pirouette
 
We can cancel all our plans
We can stay up for the weekend
'Cause you're the best I've ever had
But you know they say that
 
All around the world
All around the world
People like you and me falling in love
 
All around the world
All around the world
People like you and me can't get enough
 
When you want something that bad
Would you beg and steal and borrow
'Cause we want what we never had
People like us
People in love
People like us
People in love
 
 
And you know they say it
 
All around the world
All around the world
People like you and me falling in love
 
All around the world
All around the world
People like you and me can't get enough
 
People like us
People in love
People like us (people like us, people like us)
People in love (people in love, people in love)
People like us (people like us, people like us, people like us)
People like us
