Alesso & Marshmello Lyrics

"Chasing Stars"
(feat. James Bay)

It was just like magic
When your hips came crashing
There were fires burning and my hands learning
To paint with passion
It was planets meeting
It was synced up breathing
There were angels calling and more free falling
Than I believed in
Yeah

Memories like freight trains hit me
I replay to keep you with me
Better to have had than not at all

We were chasing stars
Across the county lines
Two imperfect pieces
With our fingers intertwined
And I would do it all again
Knowing I'd be left behind
Oh, what a time
Back when you were mine

Oh, I'm hurting
But I'm still certain
That when the pain comes back in waves
Yeah, it was worth it
Yeah

Memories like freight trains hit me
I replay to keep you with me
Better to have had than not at all

We were chasing stars
Across the county lines
Two imperfect pieces
With our fingers intertwined
And I would do it all again
Knowing I'd be left behind
Oh, what a time
Back when you were mine

Back when you were mine
Oh, we were chasing stars
Oh, we were chasing stars

We were chasing stars
Across the county line
Two imperfect pieces
With our fingers intertwined
And I would do it all again
Knowing I'd be left behind
Oh, what a time
Back when you were mine (When you were mine)

Back when you were mine
Back when you were mine
Oh, we were chasing stars
Oh, we were chasing stars
Back when you were mine


James Bay told PEOPLE about "Chasing Stars" released on the 20th of August, 2021, "I think it just makes you want to get up out your seat and sing that chorus." He also added, "It's reminiscent of a time that you had with somebody, then it's talking about how beautiful it was and what a wonderful time that was. It's like, 'Do you remember that time when we were chasing stars, we were the greatest? It was you and me against the world.' I hope it does that for people, that's what it does for me."
