The A B C Of Modern Life

All of us, no exception

Killers on the loose

Lyrics to Little Mix album

Names of people I know

Ocean animals that will freak me out

Gave you my heart

How have spent so much time apart

I wished upon a star that night

Just hoping of something great in sight

Keep thinking back to those days

Loving things in loads of different ways

Moving was a hard thi...
