Best of 2012: Payphone / Call Me Maybe / Wide Awake / Starships / We Are Young

I'm at a payphone

I threw a wish in the well
Don't ask me, I'll never tell
I looked to you as it fell
And now you're in my way

I'd trade my soul for a wish
Pennies and dimes for a kiss
I wasn't looking for this
But now you're in my way

I've wasted my nights
You turned out the lights
Now I'm paralyzed, still stuck in that time
When we called it love
But even the sun sets in paradise

I'm at a payphone

Hey, I just met you and this crazy
But here's my number, so call me, maybe
It's hard to look right at you, baby
Here's my number

I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby, it's all wrong
Where are the plans we made for two

If happy ever after did exist
(I'm wide awake)
I would still be holding you like this
(I'm wide awake)
All those fairy tales are full of it
(I'm wide awake)
One more stupid love song, I'll be sick

Yeah, I'm falling from cloud nine
(It was out of the blue)
Crashing from the high
(I wish I knew then, what I know now, wouldn't dive in)
Letting go tonight
Falling from cloud nine

Starships are meant to fly
Hands up and touch the sky
Let's do this one last time
Let's do this one more time
One more time, one more time

Tonight we are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun

Tonight we are young
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter than the sun tonight

Call me maybe at a payphone
Wide awake and standing on a starship
Waiting while we're young tonight
