I never thought I could miss your cry

The way you kept me up through all those sleepless nights

But all I want is, all I want is you

Not one for cliches or for rhymes

But a little bit of distance makes the heart come back to life

Now all I want is, all I want is you

We are under the same night sky

So I will always be by your side

[Chorus:]

Oh woah

Ooh la la la, la la la

Don't you worry

Ooh la la la, la la la

'Cause I know you do

Ooh la la la, la la la

I'm gonna be home soon

So just keep staring at the moon

And know that I will be looking back at you

You know that I will be looking back at you

I never wanna see those blue eyes blue

Even though the sun will rise,

The moon will be there too

Yeah smiling over, smiling down on you

Oh 'cause we are under the same night sky

So I will always be by your side

[Chorus:]

Oh woah

Ooh la la la, la la la

Don't you worry

Ooh la la la, la la la

'Cause I know you do

Ooh la la la, la la la

I'm gonna be home soon

So just keep staring at the moon

And know that I will be looking back at you

You know that I will be looking back at you

Yeah, all I want is, all I want is you

You are my heart, my soul, my everything and more

Yeah, all I want is, all I want is you

You'll never be alone, 'cause baby don't you know that

We are under the same night sky

So you will always be my side

[Chorus:]

Oh woah

Ooh la la la, la la la

Don't you worry

Ooh la la la, la la la

Yeah because I know you do

Ooh la la la, la la la

I'm gonna be home soon

So just keep staring at the moon

And know that I will be looking back at you

You know that I will be looking back at you
