Except For You

Gabrielle Aplin

My word is empty except for you
So can we decorate the night
I will put you in charge of arranging all the stars
'Cause everything is out of place except for you

And I have no words except for you
But I will try to write them down
'Cause It appears I forgot where the story even started
And I could never say you write the way you do

And I am mislead
All exposed but I'm sad

It's pandemonium and I am swept away
It's pandemonium but I won't be over powered
So don't you take your eyes off me
'Cause We are becoming to be

And It's all a game except for you
But aren't you scared to break the rules
So I wait and domino for a moment to fall over
I am only standing still to wait for you

And I am mislead
All exposed but I'm sad

It's pandemonium and I am swept away
It's pandemonium but I won't be over powered
So don't you take your eyes off me
'Cause We are becoming to be

And I won't try to break the silence
And I won't mind how long It takes
No excuses
No mistakes

My word is empty except for you
So can we decorate the night
I will put you in charge of arranging all the stars
'Cause everything is out of place except for you
