lyrics

There's a hundred different ways that love could die
A million more why not tonight
I don't want to fight it, you, you sure can't hide it
Cause we're heating we're heating we're heating up and you'll ignite it
Burn the place down, get out of town
We should be alone, no one around
I don't want to fight it you, you sure can't hide it
Cause we're wasting we're wasting we're wasting the day but we'll rule the night

There's a place I found
Heartbeats only sounds
We can't tell up from down

This is where the wild things roam
Where we'll build our castle
Where you'll rule over me
You're royal tonight
You're royal tonight

This is where the wild things roam
Where we'll build our castle
Where you'll rule over me
You're royal tonight
You're royal tonight
You're royalty

Listening carefully
Everything you see
It's hard to believe
In your wildest dreams
It's the new reality
It's, It's just you and me
I'm asking, I'm asking, I'm asking why you staring?
Let the breathing do the talking
Let the feelings do the walking
Let the tongue dance
Let the eyes snap
Let it all come together now

They can't stand to watch us
They won't turn the lights off
Because everybody wants to see what it's like to be royalty
If they shout we'll let them
Cause they won't turn against us
Because everybody wants to see what it's like to be royalty
