When The Lights Come Up

Catch a glimpse of you
While I walk through
The airport by myself

Got a sweater on
I’ve seen in a few
Pictures that you’ve sent

I can’t say that
I’ve been missing someone
I’ve only met once

And the pressures
We put on ourselves
Come right to the forefront

And we ask

What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
My eyes get big and I’m with you
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
And you’re still on my mind
Oh what are we gonna do

What’s gonna happen when the lights come up?

What if you drink too much
And cheat your way through school
Is that ok?

Bite your nails
And move to cigarettes
To make it through your day

But we both feel it
That we need to be together
Every day

How can I go on
When I know you exist
So far away?

What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
My eyes get big and I’m with you
What’s gonna happen when the lights come up
And you’re still on my mind
Oh what are we gonna do

What’s gonna happen when the lights come up?
