  • Stood in the rain and watched you go
    I feel a lump in my throat
    And this is far from joy, ooh, ooh, hey

    I never seemed to learn
    That high makes things harder
    That high I get from you, ooh, ooh, oh

    I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
    I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
    I think it's time to run 'cause I'm seeing stars
    I'm seeing stars, watch me fall apart

    I think of dying all the time
    But I've got joy to take my side
    Fear is my favorite ride, ooh, hey, oh

    I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
    I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
    I think it's time to run 'cause I'm seeing stars
    I'm seeing stars, watch me fall apart

    Oh, and then you'll see, ooh

    I've figured out that joy is not in your arms
    I know I'll always ache with an empty heart
    I think it's time to run 'cause I'm seeing stars
    I'm seeing stars, watch me fall apart

    Ooh, hey
    Ooh, oh, yeah
    Hey, ooh Writer/s: Elena Jane Goulding, James Christopher Eliot
