Lol that synchronised throwing though:
Demi: You ready?
Olly: Yeah it's raised in my hand.
Demi: Okay I've gotten it too. Don't smash it too hard or Mum'll wake up.
Olly: Alright. In 5..4..3..2..

Both vases crash.

Demi's mum: DEMI WHAT WAS THAT.
Olly: Quick, quick clean UP!

        TRADUÇAO: <3 <3 <3
                 
Eu desenhei um coração partido
Bem no parapeito de sua janela
Esperei por sua resposta
Aqui na chuva forte

Só respire contra o vidro
Me dê algum tipo de sinal
Eu sei que a dor não vai passar, é
Só me diga que não é o fim da linha
Só me diga que não é o fim da linha

Eu nunca quis partir seu coração
Agora, não vou deixar este avião cair
Eu nunca quis te fazer chorar
Vou fazer tudo o que puder para fazer isso voar

Oh, você tem que se apegar
Se apegar ao que sente
Este sentimento é a melhor coisa
Realmente, a melhor coisa

Eu vou apostar em nós
Eu sei que nosso amor está seguindo
Na mesma direção
Para cima

Você é um ponto de interrogação
Será que sabe o que eu quero
Eu quero virar a bússola, é
Para onde costumava apontar

Então, vamos construir uma ponte
Do seu lado para o meu
Serei eu a atravessar
Só me diga que não é o fim da linha
Só me diga que não é o fim da linha

Eu nunca quis partir seu coração
Agora, não vou deixar este avião cair
Eu nunca quis te fazer chorar
Vou fazer tudo o que puder para fazer isso voar

Oh, você tem que se apegar
Se apegar ao que sente
Este sentimento é a melhor coisa
Realmente, a melhor coisa

Eu vou apostar em nós
Eu sei que nosso amor está seguindo
Na mesma direção
Para cima

Garota, eu sei que podemos escalar
Para onde costumávamos ficar
Sinto aqui, em meu coração
E o coloco em suas mãos

Bom, eu espero e oro
Que você entenderá
Se entender, tudo o que precisa dizer é

Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Estou esperando por você
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah

Eu nunca quis partir seu coração
Agora, não vou deixar este avião cair
Eu nunca quis te fazer chorar
Vou fazer tudo o que puder para fazer isso voar

Oh, você tem que se apegar
Se apegar ao que sente
Este sentimento é a melhor coisa
Realmente, a melhor coisa

Eu vou apostar em nós
Eu sei que nosso amor está seguindo
Na mesma direção
Para cima
 SIMPLISMENTE PERFEITA <3 <3 <3
DEMI DIVA <3 ^-^
