[English]

It's your fault

You came in like a cannonball

And opened up the door

The one I thought was closed for good

You touched my soul

Didn't wanna lose control

Like no one did before

Now I can't let you go

I remember talking on the first night

Chilled me to the bone 'cause I realized

Everything before was a waste of time

And this could be forever

This could be forever

If it's this life or the next one

Promise that I'm always gonna find ya

If it ain't you, it ain't no one

Yeah, this could be forever, this could be forever, so

If I fall again

It'd be the last time

The last time that I'm falling

The last time that I'm falling, oh-oh

And this just the beginning

But it's the last time

The last time that I'm falling

The last time that I'm falling

'Til I fall again for you, yeah

Fall again for you, mmm

...

Heart on fire

You pulled me from the cynical

And put my faith in you

That ain't somethin' that I do

Don't know why

It took so long to find this place

A love I never know

Where there's only room for two, yeah

I remember talking on the first night

Chilled me to the bone 'cause I realized

Everything before was a waste of time

And this could be forever

This could be forever

If it's this life or the next one

Promise that I'm always gonna find ya

If it ain't you, it ain't no one

Yeah, this could be forever, this could be forever, so

If I fall again

It'd be the last time

The last time that I'm falling

The last time that I'm falling, oh-oh

And this just the beginning

But it's the last time

The last time that I'm falling

The last time that I'm falling

'Til I fall again for you

'Til I fall again forever

'Til I find you, and remember

Never fall for someone new, mmm

And if time and space are endless

You and I will never end this

Every life, I'm living with you, yeah

If I fall again

It'd be the last time

The last time that I'm falling

The last time that I'm falling, oh-oh

And this just the beginning

But it's the last time

The last time that I'm falling

The last time that I'm falling

'Til I fall again for you, yeah, yeah

Fall again for you, mmm-mmm-mmm

Fall again for you
