I saw stars on the pavement
California dreams
Looked up through the bright lights
No stars did I see

You said it's all yours if you take it there
I said I can't do it alone I swear
You said it's all yours
It's all yours and you smiled

It's only you (Who)
Loves me like you do (Do)
Tryna keep it cool (Cool)
But I can't keep cool about it,about it

Acting like a fool (Fool)
Wanna scream it from the roof (Roof)
I'm tryna keep it cool (Cool)
But I can't keep cool about it,about it

And for your love I was blind
Drifting at sea
You were the beacon I followed home
You were the one who rescued me

You said it's all yours if you take it there
I said I can't do it alone I swear
You said it's all yours
It's all yours and you smiled

It's only you (Who)
Loves me like you do (Do)
Tryna keep it cool (Cool)
But I can't keep cool about it

Acting like a fool (Fool)
Wanna scream it from the roof (Roof)
I'm tryna keep it cool (Cool)
But I can't keep cool about it,about it

You said
(Oooh-wooah)
I don't wanna lose your love
(Oh-woaah)

It's only you (Who)
Loves me like you do (Do)
Tryna keep it cool (Cool)
But I can't keep cool about it,about it

Acting like a fool (Fool)
Wanna scream it from the roof (Roof)
I'm tryna keep it cool (Cool)
But I can't keep cool about it,about it
