Something Stupid that You Will Hate

I spilled my spirit to the meadow.
There are wars inside my heart
And I cannot breathe…
Something I’ve been longing for
Is always out of reach.

I want to fall into your arms.
Kiss the tears from my face
And tell me that you know.
There are shadows in my mind:
You silence them with your smile.

When I am drowning
You show me how to breathe.
When I am locked inside myself
Your voice is the key.

I have dreamed for a year
Of all we can be.
I have shed my every tear,
And only care what you think of me.

You are the only song I want to hear;
The only star I’d wish upon is in your eyes.
When you talk to me, I am free.
When I am drowning
You show me how to breathe.
When I am lonely
You’re the only one I need.
I love you with all my soul,
Don’t say that it’s a lie,
Tell me I am yours
And we will never die.

I believe in you and I.
I would give all my life
For a chance to kiss you
And hear you say
You are mine.
