[English]

There's a place we used to be

There's a face that I used to see

There's a picture with you by my side

There's a moment that I wanna find

I don't know where to start or how to begin

But I know I love you still

If you ever turn away, if you ever change your mind

If the road ahead becomes too hard to climb

If there's something in your heart that tells you to stop

Oh to hold you close tonight, I'd wait for life

There's a voice shouting inside my head

There's a space on your side of the bed

And there's a hope every time there's a sound

There's a silence that's playing too loud

Yeah I don't know where you are or how you may be

But I know, I love you still

If you ever turn away, if you ever change your mind

If the road ahead becomes too hard to climb

If there's something in your heart that tells you to stop

Oh to hold you close tonight, I'd wait for life

If I close my eyes

I'll dream a little deeper baby

'Cause you are always on my mind

Yeah you are always on my mind for life

If there's something in your heart that tells you to stop

Oh to hold you close, yeah

Oh to hold you close tonight, I'd wait for life

Mmm I'd wait for life
