On the Loose (Alternate Version) - Niall Horan

Like a flower waiting to bloom Like a light in a dark room I'm here waiting for you To come home and turn me on Like the desert waiting for the rain Like a school kid waiting for the spring I'm just sittin' here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on And my poor heart, it's been so dark Since you've been gone After all, you're the one who turns me off But you're the only one who can turn me back on My Hi-Fi is waiting for a new tune My glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes I'm just sittin' here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on My poor heart, it's been so dark Since you have been gone After all, you're the one who turns me off But you're the only one who can turn me back on My Hi-Fi is waiting for a new tune My glass is waiting for some fresh ice cubes I'm just sittin' here waiting for you To come on home and turn me on Turn me on

The first note The first winter of my life I was told it was the height of me The first dance Well, the first one that counted Felt like my blood was built my from crackling lights Oh this ancient wildness That we don't understand The first sound of a heartbeat To riot roaring on This is not love you had before This is something else This is something else This is not the same as other days This is something else This is something else Shouldn't need to be so fucking hard This is life on earth It's just life on earth It doesn't need to be the end of you, or me This is life on earth It's just life on earth The first light The first light on the silent shore Just the ships set anchor me and you The way home This is always the way home So you can rip that map to shreds, my dear But all we ever wanted See miles and miles from here In the first days in a strange new land We could be sailors This is not love you had before This is something else This is something else This is not the same as other days This is something else This is something else Shouldn't need to be so fucking hard This is life on earth It's just life on earth It doesn't need to be the end of you, or me This is life on earth It's just life on earth Shouldn't need to be so fucking hard This is life on earth It's just life on earth It doesn't need to be the end of you, or me This is life on earth It's just life on earth

You walk into the room, I go quiet I catch your eyes and don't blink an eyelid Feels like the world locked us on an island An island without waves I try and try to forget you But your mother thinks I'm the best for you I try and try to erase you But you won't disappear Feels like every time I turn a corner, you're standin' right there Over my shoulder, you're everywhere I swear it's hard to think, it's hard to breathe when you're in the air I try to run but you're everywhere I go When I think I'm all alone And my heart's under control Why is lovin' you not fair? You're everywhere The ground beneath my feet's a bit colder I see your face in people I don't know Feels like the world is twistin' in slo-mo And I'm stuck in one place I try and try to forget you But your mother thinks I'm the best for you I try and try to erase you But you won't disappear Feels like every time I turn a corner, you're standin' right there Over my shoulder, you're everywhere I swear it's hard to think, it's hard to breathe when you're in the air I try to run but you're everywhere I go When I think I'm all alone And my heart's under control Why is lovin' you not fair? You're everywhere Everywhere Everywhere I go But you're still not here And you're still not here Feels like every time I turn a corner, you're standin' right there Swear it's hard to think, it's hard to breathe when you're in the air Feels like every time I turn a corner, you're standin' right there Over my shoulder, you're everywhere I swear it's hard to think, it's hard to breathe when you're in the air I try to run but you're everywhere I go When I think I'm all alone (all alone) And my heart's under control Why is lovin' you not fair? You're everywhere You're everywhere

My mind is complicated Find it hard to rearrange it But I'll have to find a way somehow Overreacting lately Find it hard to say I'm sorry But I'll make it up to you somehow And I just don't know why Stars won't shine at night Tell me you want it A thousand miles away from the day that we started But I'm standing here with you, just trying to be honest If honesty means telling you the truth Well, I'm still in love with you Did I miscalculate this? Let's just go back to basics Forget about what's come and gone 'Cause I hate to see us like this Breaking up on nights just like this We should be shooting for them stars of gold So tell me you want it A thousand miles away from the day that we started But I'm standing here with you, just trying to be honest If honesty means telling you the truth Then I guess we lost our focus And it's killing me that we could go to war like this But I'm standing here with you, just trying to be honest If honesty means telling you the truth Well, I'm still in love with you Oh-oh, we will be alright Oh-oh, it'll be alright Oh-oh, we will be alright Oh-oh, it'll be alright So tell me you want it A thousand miles away from the day that we started But I'm standing here with you, just trying to be honest If honesty means telling you the truth I guess we lost our focus And it's killing me that we could go to war like this But I'm standing here with you, just trying to be honest If honesty means telling you the truth Well, I'm still in love with you

When you feel your love's been taken When you know there's something missing In the dark, we're barely hanging on Then you rest your head upon my chest And you feel like there ain't nothing left I'm afraid that what we had is gone Then I think of the start And it echoes a spark And I remember the magic electricity Then I look in my heart There's a light in the dark Still a flicker of hope that you first gave to me That I wanna keep Please don't leave Please don't leave When you lay there and you're sleeping Hear the patterns of your breathing And I tell you things you've never heard before Asking questions to the ceiling Never knowing what you're thinking I'm afraid that what we had is gone Then I think of the start And it echoes a spark And I remember the magic electricity Then I look in my heart There's a light in the dark Still a flicker of hope that you first gave to me That I wanna keep Please don't leave Please don't leave And I want this to pass And I hope this won't last Last too long Then I think of the start And it echoes a spark And I remember the magic electricity Then I look in my heart There's a light in the dark Still a flicker of hope that you first gave to me That I wanna keep Please don't leave Please don't leave
