           WE IGNORE INFORMATIONS ABOUT THIS SINGER.
They say love don't cost a thing
There's heart for cards but cash is king
Fancy cars and diamond rings
I won't get caught in all that greed
 
So come and take a walk and peace
There's all the freedom you need
And go spread your love
For the people's greater needs
 
Take a walk in peace
And hear what I'm saying now
The world is obsessed with material things
It's time to throw away your selfish needs
Let's let your words agree with how your actions speak
I'm here to talk, not trying to preach
 
So come and take a walk and peace
There's all the freedom you need
And go spread your love
For the people's greater needs
Don't let yourself get lost in all that greed.

'Cause you're a sky, 'cause you're a sky full of stars
I'm gonna give you my heart
'Cause you're a sky, 'cause you're a sky full of stars
'Cause you light up the path
 
I don't care, go on and tear me apart
I don't care if you do, ooh-ooh, ooh
'Cause in a sky, 'cause in a sky full of stars
I think I saw you
 
'Cause you're a sky, 'cause you're a sky full of stars
I want to die in your arms, oh, oh-oh
'Cause you get lighter the more it gets dark
I'm gonna give you my heart, oh
 
I don't care, go on and tear me apart
I don't care if you do, ooh-ooh, ooh
'Cause in a sky, 'cause in sky full of stars
I think I see you
I think I see you
 
'Cause you're a sky, you're a sky full of stars
Such a heavenly view
You're such a heavenly view
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh).

Loving can hurt
Loving can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know
When it gets hard
You know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive
 
We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen still
 
So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
Wait for me to come home
 
Loving can heal
Loving can mend your soul
And it's the only thing that I know (know)
I swear it will get easier
Remember that with every peace of ya
And it's the only thing we take with us when we die
 
We keep this love in this photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes were never closing
Hearts were never broken
And time's forever frozen still
 
So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
 
And if you hurt me
Well that's okay baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
 
You can fit me
Inside the necklace you bought
When you were sixteen
Next to your heartbeat where I should be
Keep it deep within your soul
 
And if you hurt me
Well that's okay baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages you just hold me (hold me)
And I won't ever let you go
 
When I'm away
I will remember how you kissed me
Under the lamppost back on Sixth street
Hearing you whisper through the phone
Wait for me to come home.
