[English]

Oh my goodness, I can't hide it

You just smiled when you walked by me

Oh... my goodness

Warning signs that no one showed me

Lost control but please don't hold me back

Gonna go for it

I hope you're ready for it

Oh Oh...

'Cause I don't know

If I can stop now

I'm going too fast, heart first

My head just can't slow me down

And I don't care

If you don't break my fall

You got me dreaming of a life

That anybody else would die for

I'm rolling down hill, no breaks

Can't go back now, it's too late oh

It's too late to look away

And unfeel what I feel for you

And unsee what I see in you

I'm gonna go for it

I hope you're ready 'cause

I don't know

If I can stop now

I'm going too fast, heart first

My head just can't slow me down

And I don't care

If you don't break my fall

You got me dreaming of a life

That anybody else would die for

Oh baby

Anybody else would die for...

First sight I believed in first sight

No second thoughts in my mind just felt right

Ohhh my goodness

Oh

'Cause I don't know

If I can stop now

I'm going too fast, heart first

My head just can't slow me down

And I don't care

If you don't break my fall

You got me dreaming of a life

That anybody else would die for

I've been dreaming of a life that anybody else would die for

Anybody else would die for
