Lyrics

Tried

Look what you've done
You ruined the fun
And now I'm up later than ever before
Here comes the sun
Look what you've done
I can't believe it
I'm catching feelings
I can't believe it
I can't believe it
I can't wait

Its coming on just a bit too strong
And I'm just trying to hold on
Its coming on just a bit too strong
Its so strong
I told you not to
I told you not to
Look what you've done
I cant believe it
You ruined the fun
I'm catching feelings

And now I'm up later than ever before
I cant believe it
Here comes the sun
Look what you've done
I cant wait
Its coming on just a bit too strong
To see your face
And I'm just trying to hold on
Feelings fade
Coming on just a bit too strong

Its so strong
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun
Look what you've done
Here comes the sun
Look what you've done
Here comes the sun
Look what you've done
Here comes the sun
Look what you've done
