[English]
Running through the heat, heartbeatYou shine like silver in the sunlight
You light up my cold heart
It feels right in the sun, the sun
We're running around and around like
Nothing else could matter in our life
But wait, but wait, but wait
The sun will stop shining soon and you'll be dark in my life
Yeah, you'll be gone
It's as simple as a change of heart
But I'm not gonna think about the future
A love like this won't last forever
I know that a love like this won't last forever, but I
I don't really mind, but
I don't really mind at all
Step into the night, love
It grows dark but you don't mind
Hiding in the back streets, yeah, you'll never notice me
All that I was thinking about was cleaning up my conscience
Lost in the memory as it shakes up the corners of my heart
Was it my mistake
Or maybe it was just as simple as a change in your heart
Just as simple as a change in your heart
I know now a love like this won't last forever
I know that a love like this won't last forever, but I
I know that a love like this won't last forever
I know that a love like this won't last forever, but I
And I
I don't mind at all
A love like this won't last forever
A love like this (a love like this)
A love like this won't last forever (a love like this won't last forever)
