  • You can see there's something in the way
    I've tried to show you, my door is open
    I don't know how much more I can take
    Since you've chosen, to leave me frozen
    Am I the only one, who sees what you've become?
    Will you drift away?
    We're running out of time, two wrongs can make it right
    Could I make you stay?

    People making choices they can't fake
    Sacrifice it all and maybe say

    Something extraordinary
    Something real (something real)
    To fill my days and nights with something
    That I can feel (I can feel)
    I'm not gonna compromise
    Surely you can sympathize?
    Say you feel the same

    You've wandered down a path I can't explain
    Have you seen her? The grass is greener
    To let me pass you by would be a shame
    If she's your only then why're lonely?
    'Cause I'm the only one, who know the things you've done
    I'm so good for you
    We're running out of time, two wrongs can make it right
    Could I make you do

    Something extraordinary
    Something real (something real)
    To fill my days and nights with something
    That I can feel (I can feel)
    I'm not gonna compromise
    Surely you can sympathize
    Say you feel the same

    Just don't say it will be alright
    I'm not holding yourself in your arms tonight
    Don't say it will all be fine
    In only a moment you'll say goodbye

    I, I, I, I, I, I, I
    I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

    Something extraordinary
    Something real (something real)
    To fill my days and nights with something
    That I can feel (I can feel)

    Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh,
    I, I, I, I, I, I, I
    I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I

    Something extraordinary
    Something real
    To fill my days and nights with something
    That I can feel

    Just don't say it will be alright
    I'm not holding yourself in your arms tonight
    Don't say it will all be fine
    In only a moment you'll say goodbye Writer/s: GRACE CHATTO, GUSTAVE RUDMAN, JACK PATTERSON, JIMMY NAPLES
