[English]

Time is standing still and I don’t wanna leave your lips

Tracing my body with your fingertips

I know what you’re feeling and I know you wanna say it

I do too but we gotta be patient

Cause someone like me and someone like you

Really shouldn’t work Yeah the history is proof

Damned if I don’t, damned if I do

You know by now we’ve seen it all

Said, Oh, we should fall in love with our eyes closed

Better if we keep it where we don’t know

The beds we’ve been in, the names and the faces of who we were with

And oh, ain’t nobody perfect but it’s all good

The past can’t hurt us if we don’t look, let’s let it go

Better if we fall in love with our eyes closed

I got tunnel vision every second that you’re with me

No, I don’t care what anybody says just kiss me

Cuz you look like trouble but it could be good

I’ve been the same kind of misunderstood

Whatever you’ve done trust it ain’t nothing new

You know by now we’ve seen it all

Said, Oh, we should fall in love with our eyes closed

Better if we keep it where we don’t know

The beds we’ve been in, the names and the faces of who we were with

And oh, ain’t nobody perfect but it’s all good

The past can’t hurt us if we don’t look, let’s let it go

Better if we fall in love with our eyes closed

Cause someone like me and someone like you

Really shouldn’t work Yeah the history is proof

Damned if I don’t, damned if I do

You know by now we’ve seen it all

Said, Oh, we should fall in love with our eyes closed

Better if we keep it where we don’t know

The beds we’ve been in, the names and the faces of who we were with

And oh, ain’t nobody perfect but it’s all good

The past can’t hurt us if we don’t look, let’s let it go

Better if we fall in love with our eyes closed

with our eyes closed
