U (Fighting with my ghosts) – English Lyrics

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Can't stop fighting with my ghost,

Can't stop fighting with my...

Turn on the lights cause I'm nervous tonight,

All my sorrows are messing my mind, yeah,

I need someone holding me tight,

When I'm lonely, I treat you a kind,

Don't you know that you, you could mean

More than anything in the world,

Don't you know that you, you could be

On speed dial in my telephone.

I'm in love with ma baby tonight,

I'm in love with you, right, you got me baby,

I'm strong but I don't wanna fight,

No more, no more, gotta stop, stop fighting with ma ghost.

You-u-u, you-u-u, you-u-u,

You make me crazy when I am with you,

You-u-u, you-u-u, you-u-u,

I thought I was the one for you,

You-u-u, you-u-u, you-u-u,

You call me on and on and on,

You-u-u, you-u-u, you-u-u,

Leave me alone before I'm gone.

Was the last time to feel worried,

Out of love and out of glory,

You had the chance to say you're sorry,

But the end turned out so blurry,

Don't you know that you, you

Could mean more than anything in the world,

Don't you know that you you could be

On speed dial in my telephone.

I'm in love with ma baby tonight,

I'm in love with you, right, you got me baby,

I'm strong but I don't wanna fight,

No more, no more, gotta stop, stop fighting with ma ghost.

You-u-u, you-u-u, you-u-u,

You make me crazy when I am with you,

You-u-u, you-u-u, you-u-u,

I thought I was the one for you,

You-u-u, you-u-u, you-u-u,

You call me on and on and on,

You-u-u, you-u-u, you-u-u,

Leave me alone before I'm gone.
