You should've known I love you But I'll never say it too much Maybe you did turn to get me Maybe I'll never know what I've done Now I'm lost in the distance You look at me like a stranger Cause how it looks right now to me If you're scared of the danger I could've shown you America All the bright lights in the universe We could have reached the highest heights A different place, a different life Remember that night underneath the stars For a minute I thought the world was ours All you had to do was show me love Yeah it's true you know, we're not perfect There's a fire inside of me It means I'll fight for the things that are worth it If it makes me feel complete 'Cause I'm hitting rocks, and I'm taking shots I'm prepared to lose everything I've got Now I'm lost in the distance You look at me like a stranger 'Cause how it looks right now to me Nothing can save us I could've shown you America All the bright lights in the universe We could've reached the highest heights A different place, a different life Remember that night the underneath the stars For a minute I thought the world was ours All you had to do was show me love Show me love, love Show me love, love Show me love, love (show me, show me love) Show me love, love (show me, show me love) Show me love, love Show me love, love (yeah) I could've shown you America All the bright lights in the universe We could've reached the highest heights A different place, a different life Remember that night underneath the stars For a minute I thought the world was ours All you had to do was show me love All you had to do was show me love
