Is this the moment where I look you in the eye Forgive my broken promise that you'll never see me cry And everything, it will surely change Even if I tell you I won't go away today Will you think that you're all alone When no one's there to hold your hand And all you know seems so far away And everything is temporary, rest your head I'm permanent I know he's living in Hell every single day And so I asked Oh, God, is there some way for me to take his place And when they say it's all touch and go I wish I can make it go away But still you say Will you think that you're all alone When no one's there to hold your hand When all you know seems so far away And everything is temporary, rest your head I'm permanent I'm permanent Is this the moment where I look you in the eye Forgive my promise that you'll never see me cry

You should hear it The quiet sound of knowing there is nothing left to say All the feeling That takes me back to somewhere I don't wanna be again 'Cause you know everything that's on my mind But knowing everything don't make it right But you can close your eyes 'Til the darkness underneath us starts to fade But I will take my time 'Til the damage seeps in just enough to change

There was a time my world belong with you But I was so misguided in our youth I couldn't help but drink this poison brew You had a strange perception of the truth Oh, baby, I remember you Oh baby, I remember you 'Cause your heart is cold And your blood runs dry You'll never see or hear the crashing of the sea The tempest rise, it stops all time When lovers eyes are locked in harmony I was aware that danger lay ahead And I couldn't bare this stranger in my head Well, you've got a face (you've got a face) Well, you've got a soul Oh, he ain't got nothing Not even our hope I give it a try, a long time ago And your face was designed But you didn't know Oh, baby, I remember you 'Cause your heart is cold And your blood runs dry You'll never see or hear the crashing of the sea The tempest rise, it stops all time When lovers eyes are locked in harmony 'Cause your heart is cold And your blood runs dry You'll never hear or feel the crashing of the sea The tempest rise, that stops all time When lovers eyes are locked in harmony

This could be Everything This could be All that you wanted Nothing more Nothing less We could be burning bright Why are you worried? Is there something wrong? Have you been crying To your favorite song? Everything's blurry now We could be every night Are you ready to go? Are you ready to leave this place behind? Are you ready to go? I think I super like you Superlike Superlike Superlike I think I super like you In a week I think that we will be happy We can roll a dice And try to make it happen I can wait I can wait We could be burning bright So why are you trying When you're going on outside the city Or a lonely town Feels like the first time We can be every night Are you ready to go? Are you ready to leave this place behind? Are you ready to go? I think I super like you Superlike Superlike Superlike I think I super like you You're shining like A broken star You're playing it cool And you know you are You're a broken star You know you are to me Are you ready to go? Are you ready to leave this place behind? Are you ready to go? I think I super like you Superlike Superlike Superlike I think I super like you
