One, two, three, four,
Tell me that you love me more.
Sleepless, long nights.
Sighs, what my youth was for.
Oh, teenage hopes arrive at your door
Left you with nothing,
But they want some more
Oh, oh, oh,
You're changing your heart.
Oh, oh, oh,
You know who you are.
Sweetheart, bitter heart,
Now I can't tell you apart.
Cozy and cold,
Put the horse before the cart.
Those teenage hopes,
Who have tears in their eyes.
Too scared to run off,
to one little life.
Oh, oh, oh,
You're changing your heart.
Oh, oh, oh,
You know who you are.
