[English]

(Hold me close) Look me dead in my eyes

(Dead in my) 'Til the day that I die

(Dead inside) I just wanna feel alive

(With you I'm alive) With you I'm alive

Fell in love but it left me lonely

Tried to trust but it burned me slowly

I didn't know what I was looking for

'Til I found her

I found her

(Without her) I'm a mess

There was nothing about that love that made sense

I was stressed

'Til I found her

I've run for many miles

Trying to find love from a woman that could love me

And never leave my side

And I've run for many miles

Trying to get away from the things I'm afraid of

And everything inside

You say that we're already done

But what does that even mean?

You tell me to open my eyes

Thank God it was just a dream

I guess that's how you know that it's love

When you're scared to death they'll leave

Just say that you'll never leave, never leave

(Baby, hold me close) Look me dead in my eyes

(Dead in my) 'Til the day that I die

(Dead inside) I just wanna feel alive

(With you I'm alive) With you I'm a-, uh

Fell in love but it left me lonely

Tried to trust but it burned me slowly

I didn't know what I was looking for

'Til I found her

I found her

(Without her) I'm a mess

There was nothing about that love that made sense

I was stressed

'Til I found her

(And without her) I'm a mess

There was nothing about that love that made sense

I was stressed

'Til I found her

'Til I found her

Oo-oo-oo
