[Verse 1]
There was a shot in the dark
I was caught by surprise
There was a hole in my heart
There were tears in your eyes
And there was nothing to say
Because you made up your mind
And so I guess what you meant
When you left was goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
So if you're going to go
And leave me in a lonely gray
I won't let it show
Until you finally flown away

[Chorus]
You got to know that you tear me up
When you say you want to take it all away, take it all away
You tear me up when you say
You want to take it all away, take it all away!
You were the one, and it was enough
To be the one you were dreaming of!
You were the one and we called it love
And now you take it away, take away!

[Verse 2]
I felt a pain in my chest with your kiss on my cheek
And as I tried to digest the words I couldn't believe
I'm left with nothing to say with my heart on my sleeve
Making it easy to hurt, and even harder to breathe

[Pre-Chorus]
So if you're going to go
And leave me in a lonely gray
I won't let it show
Until you finally flown away

[Chorus]
You got to know that you tear me up
When you say you want to take it all away, take it all away
You tear me up when you say
You want to take it all away, take it all away!
You were the one, and it was enough
To be the one you were dreaming of!
You were the one and we called it love
And now you take it away, take away!

[Outro]
You take it all away
You take it all away
You take it all away

[Chorus]
You got to know that you tear me up
When you say you want to take it all away, take it all away
You tear me up when you say
You want to take it all away, take it all away!
You were the one, and it was enough
To be the one you were dreaming of!
You were the one and we called it love
And now you take it away, take away!

Owl City

Originally making songs in his basement for his friends as Sky Sailing, Adam Young then discovered synth music and became Owl City, releasing two relatively unpopular albums Maybe I’m Dreaming and Of June before making his hit single “Fireflies” which made his third album as Owl City, Ocean Eyes a hit.

After this worldwide success he put on two more albums, All Things Bright and Beautiful in 2011, and The Midsummer Station in 2012. In 2014 he released an EP, Ultraviolet, composed of 4 songs whom one would appear on his following album, Mobile Orchestra. Retiring from Owl City in 2016 to focus on Adam Young Scores, a new project made of orchestral soundtracks about historic events, he reappeared in 2017 to tease his upcoming new album Cinematic, with the release of a series of three EPs, called Reel 1 , 2 and 3.
