Something's Taking Over

Something's Taking Over Lyrics

You barge into the room
With a smile as big as your head
You had a conversation
And you told me what he said
Bouncing like a monkey on my bed
Bouncing like a bunny on the bed

At your grandmother’s house
In the lightening by the shore
We put down our umbrellas
And you quickly closed the door
You cross the room with a candle in a jar
No one thought that we would get this far

But something’s taking over
There’s a light in your eyes
Something’s taking over
Here’s to light in our eyes
It’s getting light and I’m not tired
It’s getting light and I’m not tired
It’s getting light and I’m not tired

In a mysterious room
Ina strange house in the hills
Lots of plastic lizards scattered on the window sills
You’re laughing in the dark right next to me
I wonder who else I can try to be

But something’s taking over
There’s a light in your eyes
Something’s taking over
Here’s to light in our eyes
It’s getting light and I’m not tired
It’s getting light and I’m not tired
It’s getting light and I’m not tired

In the lounge there’s a piano
That no one’s played for years
You remind me to be quiet
So you boyfriend doesn’t hear
It’s getting light but I’m not tired at all
It’s getting light but I’m not tired at all

‘Cause something’s taking over
There’s a light in your eyes
Something’s taking over
Here’s to light in our eyes
It’s getting light and I’m not tired
It’s getting light and I’m not tired
It’s getting light and I’m not tired
