[English]

I wish I could remember every second we had

I know I tried to count 'em all one by one, one by one

But you don't get 'em back, you don't get 'em back

Take every memory we've ever had

Oh I wanna live 'em all one by one, one by one

And I swear that I'm not gonna lose you now

Keep you in my life somehow

And even when the lights go down, down

I could never lose you now

And еven though we're not so closе here

Maybe you can pick me up still

'Cause I can't stop falling down, I can't stop falling down

And I'm not gonna lose you now

...

I'm not gonna lose you now

...

Oh I can still remember all the lessons you gave me

I hope that I can live 'em all one by one, one by one

Don't you go looking back, there's no looking back

And I don't mean to open every picture I saved up

I'm only trying visit with you one by one, one by one

And I swear that I'm not gonna lose you now

Need you in my life somehow

And even when the lights go down, down

I could never lose you now

Even though we're not so close here

Maybe you can pick me up still

'Cause I can't stop fallin' down, I can't stop fallin' down

And I'm not gonna lose you now

...

Even when I'm fallin' down

I'm not gonna lose you now

...

'Cause I can't stop fallin' down, I can't stop fallin' down

I'll keep you in my life somehow

And even when the lights go down, down

I'm not gonna lose you now

I'm not gonna lose you now

...
