[English]

Us against the world

Against the world

...

Us against the world

Against the world

You and I,

We've been at it so long

And still got the strongest fire

You and I,

We still know how to talk

Know how to walk that wire

Sometimes I feel like the world is against me

The sound of your voice,

Baby that's what saves me

When we're together I feel so invincible

'Cause it's us against the world

You and me against them all

If you're listening to these words

Know that we are standing tall

I don't ever see the day

That I won't catch you when you fall

'Cause it's us against the world tonight

Us against the world

Against the world

There'll be days

We'll be on different sides

But that doesn't last too long

We find ways

To get it on track

We know how to turn back on

Sometimes I feel I can't keep it together

Then you hold me close

And you make it better

When I'm with you I can feel so unbreakable

'Cause it's us against the world

You and me against them all

If you're listening to these words

Know that we are standing tall

I don't ever see the day

That I won't catch you when you fall

'Cause it's us against the world tonight

We're not gonna break

'Cause we both still believe

We know what we've got

And we've got what we need, alright

We're doing something right

'Cause it's us against the world

You and me against them all

If you're listening to these words

Know that we are standing tall

I don't ever see the day

That I won't catch you when you fall

'Cause it's us against the world

You and me against them all

If you're listening to these words

Know that we are standing tall

I don't ever see the day

That I won't catch you when you fall

Us against the world

Yeah it's us against the world baby

Us against the world tonight

Us against the world

Against the world

Us against the world
