B
Out of the blue came the sun.
You bottled it up in times of rain.
A
You carry it with you wherever you go.
You share it with people that have different names.

B
Whether to wait or weather the storm.
You leave it to fate, it's one in the same.
A
As long as you're with me we can move on.
As long as you're here I'm the lucky one...
B
We don't know which way the wind blows
         A
and for how long. We're starting over...

Chorus:
D          A             Bm
How do we do this on our own
D            A                Bm
Where do we go when life gets oh oh so emotional but
D          A             Bm
How do we do this on our own
        D         A         Bm
No. We don't. We don't. We don't...

You are the rain conductor, the sunset operator
When the sky goes dark, you're the star locator
Like an old lost instrument,
we play this key together
I'm the lucky one and I'll be that way forever
You came, we saw
A smile that conquered it all

Chorus:
How do we do this on our own?
Where do we go when life gets oh so emotional?
It's easy to see we're one in the same
One heart, one star, we are

How do we do this on our own?
Where do we go when life gets oh so emotional?
How do we do this on our own?
We don't...

How do we do this on our own?
Where do we go when life gets oh so emotional?
It's easy to see we're one in the same
One heart, one star, we are

How do we do this on our own?
Where do we go when life gets oh so emotional?
How do we do this on our own?
We don't...

      D          A       Bm
One heart, one star, we are
