lyrics

To every heart in the room
To every eye that's open
To every bird on a wire
To every flower on the ground

You better believe I'm coming up
There's no way that I'm leaving
I will never give up on you
She called me the lonely king
feels nothing has everything
I will never give up

All that you need
all that you see
There's more to do here

If you're feeling unsure
Then you're just like me
If you think that love is the cure
Then you're just like me
I'm no better than him
I'm no better than any man
I'm just trying to figure it out babe
don't give up on me

You better believe I'm coming up
There's no way that I'm leaving
I will never give up on you
She called me the lonely king
feels nothing has everything
I will never give up

All that you need
all that you see
There's more to do here
All that I am
and all that we could be
There's more to do here

I don't want to be anywhere else
But I know what I came for
You can call me passive aggressive
but you're a blessing in a lifelong lesson
And I know what I came for

You better believe I'm coming up
There's no way that I'm leaving
I will never give up on you
She called me the lonely king
feels nothing has everything
I will never give up on you
Oh no All that you need
all that you see
There's more to do here
All that I am
and all that we could be
There's more to do here
