Every time I think of you 00:08

I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue 00:11

It's no problem of mine 00:15

But it's a problem I find 00:17

Living a life that I can't leave behind 00:20

There's no sense in telling me 00:24

The wisdom of a fool won't set you free 00:27

But that's the way that it goes 00:31

And it's what nobody knows 00:33

Well every day my confusion grows 00:36

00:41

Every time I see you falling 00:57

I get down on my knees and pray 01:00

I'm waiting for that final moment 01:04

You say the words that I can't say 01:08

01:14

I feel fine and I feel good 01:30

I feel like I never should 01:32

Whenever I get this way 01:37

I just don't know what to say 01:38

Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday 01:41

I'm not sure what this could mean 01:46

I don't think you're what you seem 01:48

I do admit to myself 01:53

That if I hurt someone else 01:55

Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be 01:56

02:02

Every time I see you falling 02:17

I get down on my knees and pray 02:21

I'm waiting for that final moment 02:25

You say the words that I can't say 02:29

Every time I see you falling 02:34

I get down on my knees and pray 02:38

I'm waiting for that final moment 02:42

You say the words that I can't say 02:45

02:50

Every time I see you falling 03:24

03:26

I get down on my knees and pray 04:11

I'm waiting for that final moment 04:12

You say the words that I can't say 04:13

Every time I see you falling 04:14

I get down on my knees and pray 04:14

I'm waiting for that final moment 04:15

You say the words that I can't say 04:15

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Every time I think of you

I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue

It's no problem of mine

But it's a problem I find

Living a life that I can't leave behind

There's no sense in telling me

The wisdom of a fool won't set you free

But that's the way that it goes

And it's what nobody knows

Well every day my confusion grows

...

Every time I see you falling

I get down on my knees and pray

I'm waiting for that final moment

You say the words that I can't say

...

I feel fine and I feel good

I feel like I never should

Whenever I get this way

I just don't know what to say

Why can't we be ourselves like we were yesterday

I'm not sure what this could mean

I don't think you're what you seem

I do admit to myself

That if I hurt someone else

Then I'll never see just what we're meant to be

...

Every time I see you falling

I get down on my knees and pray

I'm waiting for that final moment

You say the words that I can't say

Every time I see you falling

I get down on my knees and pray

I'm waiting for that final moment

You say the words that I can't say

...

Every time I see you falling

...

I get down on my knees and pray

I'm waiting for that final moment

You say the words that I can't say

Every time I see you falling

I get down on my knees and pray

I'm waiting for that final moment

You say the words that I can't say

...
