[English]

Little do you know

How I'm breakin' while you fall asleep

Little do you know

I'm still haunted by the memories

Little do you know

I'm tryin' to pick myself up piece by piece

Little do you know

I need a little more time

Underneath it all I'm held captive by the hole inside

I've been holding back for the fear that you might change your mind

I'm ready to forgive you, but forgettin' is a harder fight

Little do you know

I need a little more time

I'll wait, I'll wait

I love you like you've never felt the pain

I'll wait

I promise you don't have to be afraid

I'll wait

Love is here and here to stay

So lay your head on me

Little do you know

I know you're hurt while I'm sound asleep

Little do you know

All my mistakes are slowly drownin' me

Little do you know

I'm tryin' to make it better piece by piece

Little do you know I

I love you 'til the sun dies

Oh wait, just wait

I love you like I've never felt the pain

Just wait

I love you like I've never been afraid

Just wait

Our love is here, and here to stay

So lay your head on me

I'll wait (I'll wait), I'll wait (I'll wait)

I love you like you've never felt the pain

I'll wait (I'll wait)

I promise you don't have to be afraid

I'll wait

Love is here, and here to stay

So lay your head on me

Lay your head on me

So lay your head on me

'Cause little do you know I

I love you 'til the sun dies
