Lyrics

City Lights

I never thought I'd ever want

Somebody much as I want you

I never thought I'd ever love

Somebody much as I love you

Nobody said you would be the one to

Change my life

'Cause love was my taboo

Now you're my tattoo

Changed my life

It feels like something I need

Something just like fireflies

Dancing in the dark

I swear it's a dream

Every time you catch my eyes

Can you see the sparks?

Sparks

Got me in my feelings

And I'm feeling like

It's scary and it's brighter than the city lights

Hard guy don't fall

It's a pity I

Never thought I'd be infatuated like this

Oh, oh, oh

My heart is bleeding

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

My heart is bleeding

Oh, oh, oh

My heart is bleeding

Oh, oh, oh

What had happened was

I really thought

Sooner or later everything go burst o

Pronto

Cupid don't shoot me, catapult oh, oh, oh, oh

Be like say I high

Be like I drink ogogoro walahi

Iru wahala wo leleyi o - kai

You changed my life

It feels like something I need

Something just like fireflies

Dancing in the dark

I swear it's a dream

Every time you catch my eyes

Can you see the sparks?

Sparks

Got me in my feelings

And I'm feeling like

It's scary and it's brighter than the city lights

Hard guy don't fall

It's a pity I

Never thought I'd be infatuated like this

Nobody said you would be the one to

Love was my taboo

Now you're my tattoo

Change my life, change my life
