Struggling with Infinity? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!
Down to earth Keep 'em falling when I know it hurts Going faster than a million miles an hour Trying to catch my breath some way, somehow Down to earth It's like I'm frozen, but the world still turns Stuck in motion, but the wheels keep spinning 'round Moving in reverse with no way out And now I'm one step closer to being Two steps far from you And everybody wants you Everybody wants you How many nights does it take to count the stars? That's the time it would take to fix my heart Oh, baby, I was there for you All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah, yeah How many nights have you wished someone would stay? Lay awake only hoping they're okay I never counted all of mine If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity Infinity, infinity, yeah Infinity Eyes can't shine Unless there's something burning bright behind Since you went away, there's nothing left in mine I feel myself running out of time And now I'm one step closer to being Two steps far from you And everybody wants you Everybody wants you How many nights does it take to count the stars? That's the time it would take to fix my heart Oh, baby, I was there for you All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah, yeah How many nights have you wished someone would stay? Lay awake only hoping they're okay I never counted all of mine If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity Infinity, infinity, yeah Infinity Infinity, infinity How many nights does it take to count the stars? That's the time it would take to fix my heart Oh, baby, I was there for you All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah, yeah How many nights have you wished someone would stay? Lay awake only hoping they're okay I never counted all of mine If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity Infinity, infinity, yeah Infinity
