Lyrics

[Intro]

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 1]

It's a cruel, cruel world to face on your own

A heavy cross to carry alone

The lights are on, but everyone's gone

And it's cruel

[Verse 2]

It's a funny way to make ends meet

When the lights are out on every street

It feels alright, but never complete

Without joy

[Chorus]

I trust you

If it's already been done, undo it

It takes two

It's up to me and you to prove it

On the rainy nights, even the coldest days

You're moments ago but seconds away

The principle of nature, it's true, but it's a cruel world

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Oh, woah

[Verse 3]

We can play it safe or play it cool

Follow the leader or make up all the rules

Whatever you want, the choice is yours

So choose

[Chorus]

I trust you

If it's already been done, undo it

It takes two

And it's up to me and you to prove it

Ei, ei, ei, ei, ei, oh, oh, oh, yeah-oh-oh

Ei, ei, ei, ei, ei, oh, oh, oh, yeah-oh, yeah-oh, yeah-oh

I trust you

It's already been done, undo it

It takes two

It's up to me and you to prove it

Ei, ei, ei, oh-oh, yeah-oh

Ei, ei, ei, ei, ei, oh-oh, yeah-oh, yeah-oh, yeah-oh

[Chorus]

I trust you

If it's already been done, undo it

It takes two

And it's up to me and you to prove it

Ei, ei, ei, ei, ei, oh-oh, yeah-oh-oh

Ei, ei, ei, oh-oh, yeah-oh, yeah-oh, yeah-oh

I trust you
