The Glitter Prize lyrics

Oh, Isabella, it's starting to snow

and I wanna know when it covers the ground.

So send me a message, show me a sign,

radiate in time to the shimmering sound.

Daylight,

I'm ready for daylight.

I'm ready to trade my darkened eyes 

for the glitter prize.

It's never enough to be giving it all

when you're drawn by the call 

of the siren you serve.

Now there's promise for keeping and miles to go1

before the sunrise show

that I wanna see, I wanna deserve.

Daylight, (I'm ready for daylight)

I'm ready for daylight (I'm ready for daylight).

I'm ready to praise your heaven skies 

when the curtains rise.

Daylight, (I'm ready for daylight)

I'm ready to play right (I'm ready to play right).

I'm ready to trade my darkened eyes 

for the glitter prize.

Every time, every time, every time 

you're around (daylight, daylight)

every sight, every sound, 

every time you're around.

Fireworks reflecting on your icy flow 

like a fever below

and I can't break free 

of the glow and the gleam.

Touché, Isabella, you were always the queen

of the dramatic scene

Now I wanna shout, I wanna scream.

Daylight, 

I'm ready for daylight.

I'm ready to praise your heaven skies 

when the curtains rise.

Daylight, 

I'm ready to play right.

I'm ready to trade my darkened eyes 

for the glitter prize.

Daylight, (I'm ready for daylight)

I'm ready for daylight (I'm ready for daylight).

I'm ready to praise your heaven skies 

when the curtains rise.

Daylight, (I'm ready for daylight)

I'm ready to play right (I'm ready to play right).

I'm ready to trade my darkened eyes 

for the glitter prize, 

for the glitter prize, 

for the glitter prize,  

for the glitter prize.
