Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I had a bad habit

Of missing lovers past

My brother used to call it

"Eating out of the trash," it's never gonna last

I thought my house was haunted

I used to live with ghosts

And all the perfect couples

Said, "When you know you know and when you don't you don't"

[PreChorus]

And all of the foes and all of the friends

Have seen it before, they'll see it again

Life is a song, it ends when it ends

I was wrong

[Chorus]

But my Mama told me, "It's alright

You were dancing through the lightning strikes

Sleepless in the onyx night

But now the sky is opalite

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh my Lord

Never made no one like you before

You had to make your own sunshine

But now the sky is opalite"

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh

[Verse 2]

You couldn't understand it

Why you felt alone

You were in it for real

She was in her phone, and you were just a pose

And don't we try to love love? (Love love)

We give it all we got (Give it all we got)

You finally left the table

And what a simple thought, you're starving till you're not

[PreChorus]

And all of the foes and all of the friends

Have messed up before, they'll mess up again

Life is a song, it ends when it ends

You move on

[Chorus]

And that's when I told you, "It's alright

You were dancing through the lightning strikes

Sleepless in the onyx night

But now the sky is opalite

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh my Lord

Never met no one like you before

You had to make your own sunshine

But now the sky is opalite"

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh

[Bridge]

This is just a storm inside a teacup

But shelter here with me, my love

Thunder like a drum

This life will beat you up, up, up, up

This is just a temporary speed bump

But failure brings you freedom

And I can bring you love (Love, love, love, love)

Don't you sweat it, baby

[Chorus]

"It's alright

You were dancing through the lightning strikes

Oh, so sleepless in the onyx night

But now the sky is opalite

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh my Lord

Never met no one like you before

You had to make your own sunshine

But now the sky is opalite"

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
