[English]
We must bear our souls, souls, soulsLet the fate we fight take hold, hold, hold
Baby when you come real close, close, close
It's alright 'cause I am whole, oh
'Cause I have been running too long
I wanna love now, I wanna love now
I wanna feel
Don't weight up this heart that you hold
I wanna love now, I wanna love now
I wanna feel
We can tiptoe round our dreams, dreams, dreams
Just to crash through reality, yeah
I won't spend it eternity
Hoping this time I'll be free, free
'Cause I have been running too long
I wanna love now, I wanna love now
I wanna feel
Don't weight up this heart that you hold
I wanna love now, I wanna love now
I wanna feel
'Cause I have been running too long
I wanna love now, I wanna love now
I wanna feel
Don't weight up this heart that you hold
I wanna love now, I wanna love now
I wanna feel
