My nearest and dearest
Once again are begging me to slow down
Cuz I cry when I slip and fall
But if I never knock
Who's gonna know I'm right here behind the door
Cuz you can't read my thoughts
And I can't dance to save my life

Beat the words you wanna hear
Your pace in my head
You're such a shooting star
One blink and I miss
I'm gonna hope, I'm gonna hold on
Until I'm covered with…
Twirl my world upside down
Cuz that's the way I like it

My nearest and dearest
Ennemies might not see me for who I am
Or maybe they're right
When you never fail
It's probably cuz you never try anything at all
I hate to hurt my precious pride
And I can't dance to save my life

Beat the words you wanna hear
Your pace in my head
You're such a shooting star
One blink and I miss
I'm gonna hope, I'm gonna hold on
Until I'm covered with…
Twirl my world upside down
Cuz that's the way I like it

But I'm no coward
I'll dance around the line now
Taste the change when I face the strange
Hands down, it's such a perfect day
I might be awkward but watch me put my foot down
Breaking the chains to break the chain
It's such a perfect day!

I'll sing what you wanna hear…
Your pace in my head
You're such a shooting star
One blink and I miss
I'm gonna hope, I'm gonna hold on
Until I'm covered with…
Twirl my world upside down
Cuz that's the way I like it
