[English]

Hey guys, it's me Loi.

As I promised, here's the cover version of the song "Without You" by the amazing Kid Laroi.

To feel more comfortable, I switched the word wife to man.

I hope everybody is cool with that.

If not, I will leave the word 'wife' at the end of the song.

So you can fix it.

Enjoy.

You cut out a piece of me, and now I'm bleeding internally

Left you without you,

without you

And it hurts for me to think about what life could possibly be like

without you,

without you

I can't believe that, you wouldn't believe me

If I call all your reasons, I lost my shit, you know I didn't mean that

And now I see it, you wanted it repeated

And I can't take it back, so in the past is where we'll leave it

So here you go, oh, can't make a man out of a ho, oh

I'll never find the words to say I'm sorry, but I'm scared to be alone

You cut out a piece of me, and now I'm bleeding internally

Left you without you,

without you

And it hurts for me to think about what life could possibly be like

without you,

without you

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

without you,

without you

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,

without you,

without you

It's gonna be hard here on my own

And even harder to let you go

Really wish that we could get this right

So here I go, oh, can't make a man out of a ho, oh

I'll never find the words to say I'm sorry, but I'm scared to be alone

You cut out a piece of me, and now I'm bleeding internally

Left you without you,

without you

And it hurts for me to think about what life could possibly be like

without you,

without you

Wife.
