[English]
If your world falls apart
...
I'll leave mine for you
I promise to listen to your fears
And I'll keep memories and secrets
Accept me just as I am
Just as I am
I ask for nothing more
Even if you go
I swear I'm here
Just as I am
...
I'll always give more
Even if you go
...
If you want to run away
Far away from here
I know where I can find you
But I stay here until you want to come back
Accept me just as I am
Just as I am
I ask for nothing more
Even if you go
I swear I'm here
Just as I am
I'll always give more
Even if you go
I'm not who you need me to be
But I thank you just for being
With who you want to be with
I'm not perfect, I know this
But I promise to stay
To show you
Accept me just as I am
Just as I am
I ask for nothing more
Even if you go
I swear I'm here
Just as I am
I'll always give more
Even if you go
Go
Go
Even if you go
...
