[English]

We don't have to be together

We could even be a thousand miles apart, oh

This, I promise you forever

I'll always be the light that gets you out the dark, ooh

No matter the time

No matter the place

There's nothing in this world that could stand in my way

I'll come running wherever you are

My love for you ain't never gonna change

I'll come running wherever you are

Whenever you call

Girl, whenever you call my name

...

I never said it would be easy

But your lovin' is a love worth fighting for, mmm

And girl, I'll fight for your heart all night and all day

Forever and more

No matter the time

No matter the place

There's nothing in this world

That could stand in my way

I'll come running wherever you are

My love for you ain't never gonna change

I'll come running wherever you are

Whenever you call

Girl, whenever you call my name

You don't have to worry

No, no, no, no, no

I'll be there in a hurry

Gonna catch you if you fall

Promise, I'ma give my all

Let me be, let me be, let me be the one that you call

I'll come running wherever you are, oh

My love for you ain't never gonna change

I'll come running wherever you are

Whenever you call

Girl, whenever you call my name

Whenever you call my name, oh

...
