Another You – English Lyrics
Lyrics & Translation
[English]
White walls (filled with nothing but)
Nervous paces (all around I see)
Something's off (inside of myself)
I see it in their faces
Say anything, say anything
Say anything that can make this all okay
Take it away, take it away
Take away all of this emptiness I feel
'Cause I will never find another you
Another you
Another you
I still hear you in this house (whispering)
I still feel you in my bones (in these veins)
And like the portraits in the halls (can't help but think)
I wish you were staring back at me (but you're gone)
Say anything, say anything
Say anything that can make this all okay
Take it away, take it away
Take away all of this emptiness I feel
'Cause I will never find another
I may never find myself
I will never find another you
...
So I'll carry you with me
In my dreams, my memory
So I'll carry you with me (you'll always be with me)
In my dreams, my memory
So I'll carry you with me
You'll always be my memory
Say anything, say anything
Say anything that can make this all okay
Take it away, take it away
Take away all of this emptiness I feel
'Cause I will never find another
I may never find myself
And I will never find another you
...
