Counter Spark Lyrics - Singles - Sondre Lerche

You could be sad but never torn 

You saw the light when it was on 

You never turned or looked away 

Your eyes were focused, mine were grey 

Your sentences were concentrated 

You made your points so understated 

Where I would mumble, you would say 

Your eyes were focused, mine were grey 

I made up conversations with my symbolic language 

Saying everybody wants to be like you 

But I'd rather fall in love with you 

You got the picture from the start 

You saw right through me in the dark 

You saw that I couldn't behave 

With eyes so focused, yet so frail 

I chose you from a million 

You were the choice of billions 

Wishing they would try to be like you 

But I'd rather fall in love with you 

Ba-ba-ba baa-ba... 

You questioned men and called them whores 

But you would never burn your bra 

You held your head up in the rain 

Your eyes were focused, mine were grey 

You had relationships that worked 

And yet experience with jerks 

So well adjusted, but with charm 

Your eyes were focused and yet calm 

I'm fairly realistic 

But my thought are out of lip-sync 

When I say that I'm not one of those 

Who pass you by and fall in love with you 

Who pass you by and fall in love with you 

Who pass you by and fall in love with you 

I'll pass you by and fall in love with you 

Ba-ba-ba baa-ba...
