[English]

I'm finding my heart

Using my hands

You're my feet on the ground

My footprints

From where I began

I still carry your love

I feel your love

Untie this cord

For we don't need it no more

Wherever we are I'm yours always

It flows in my blood

I still carry your love

I feel your love

We start running, running

We escape this town

We don't know where we're going 'til we turn 'round

Now keep on running, running

I can't slow down

And if I'm lost my shadows fall

You light me up

When all I see is darkness

You light me up

When I'm down

And if I fall apart

You know where to find my pieces

When they can't be found

Keep my eyes shut

Safe in this trust

You're all that I need

My senses

Shining on me

I still carry your love

I feel your love

We start running, running

We escape this town

We don't know where we're going 'til we turn 'round

Now keep on running, running

I can't slow down

And if I'm lost my shadows fall

You light me up

When all I see is darkness

You light me up

When I'm down

And if I fall apart

You know where to find my pieces

When they can't be found

You light me up

When all I see is darkness

You light me up

When I'm down

And if I fall apart

You know where to find my pieces

When they can't be found

Ohhh Woaahh

I'm finding my heart

Using my hands

You're my feet on the ground

My footprints

From where I began

I still carry your love

I feel the love

You light me up

When all I see is darkness

You light me up

When I'm down

And if I fall apart

You know where to find my pieces

When they can't be found

You light me up

When all I see is darkness

You light me up

When I'm down

And if I fall apart

You know where to find my pieces

When they can't be found

I'm finding my heart

Using my hands

You're my feet on the ground

My footprints

It flows in my blood

I still carry your love

I feel your love.
