Lyrics:

[English]

Born on the wrong side of the ocean

With all the tides against you

...

You never thought you'd be much good for anyone

But that's so far from the truth

I know there's pain in your heart

And you're covered in scars

Wish you could see what I do

'Cause baby, everything you are

Is everything I need

You're everything to me

Baby, every single part

Is who you're meant to be

'Cause you were meant for me

And you're everything I need

...

You can say I'm wrong

You can turn your back against me

But I am here to stay

(I am here to stay)

Like the sea

She keeps kissing the shoreline

No matter how many times he pushes her away

'Cause baby, everything you are

Is everything I need

You're everything to me

Baby, every single part

Is who you're meant to be

'Cause you were meant for me

And everything happens for a reason

It's all a blessing in disguise

I used to question who I was

But now I see

The answer's in your eyes

'Cause baby, everything you are

Is everything I need

You're everything to me

Baby, every single part

Is who you're meant to be

'Cause you were meant for me

And you're everything I need

...
